So as I was checking out my aquarium today and preparing to do a water change I noticed a very small salt line on the back of my tank. Upon further inspection I noticed that what I had a very small pin sized leak coming from behind my overflow box.. so with that being said I drained my tank down to the point where I could take the overflow off and inspect it closer. What I found was just that one of the gaskets in the overflow had a crack/tear in it. Without me having anymore laying around I had to try and find a way to stop it. What I wound up doing was putting clear silicone on either side of the drilled hole. I also siliconed around the actual overflow box itself also. What do you guys think.. do you think that I have successfully avoided disaster of do you think it is a bomb waiting to explode on me? Thanks for your input fam..
