I had the same problem with some of my glued joints. Basically what I did is keep adding pvc glue.It will eventually find its way into the leak and seal it. if it is upside down use something to inject like a test kit syringe. I had to do some pipes 3 or 4 times until all leaks went away. Now my system is trump tight.

Thanks for the reply ...it is fixed all it required was a new gasket....

Nitrates r still as high maybe around 80 to 100....
Got a day off today and tomorrow and I am already mixing around 130 gln of fresh salt water to do the large water change....
Ammonia and nitrites read 0 ....
Should I start moving my small 5 fishes into the new display tank next week after the large water change

Yea man but mixing 150 glns of water is taking all my patience.....after fixing the leak in that big water holder that I wasn't aware of ....

That's all gud bro dnt feel bad.. Things happen ...it just required the taplin tape around the plug and it is fixed....pump dint work but a extra mag 9.5 sitting in my garage for ever that I didn't know so it came handy..
This big water holder makes my work lot easier for mixing water

hope you didn't lose much else besides the tang. still stinks losing anything in our tanks, esp a fish you've cared for since being a baby.

Love the clam!
