So I have a 72 gal bow front with a blown out bottom. I was planning on doing a plywood/black epoxy fix. I wanted to use black epoxy because I'm going for a bare bottom reef this time. Just wondering if there were any other DIY fixes for the bottom glass of this bow front? How long does epoxy have to cure before it is reef safe? Thanks for the advice in advance.

As you can see the. Bottom is completely shattered.

My suggestion would not the even mess with it and go with a new tank:)
 
That too, I do have another tank I can set up just seeing if this is salvageable. Lol

You have a large chance that is would fail, and the expense and time. I ordered mine, no one had one at the time I was setting up.
