Shore up your fish tank
with aquarium sealant
Every now and then fish tanks or aquariums start to leak. But with aquarium sealant and our guide, your fish tank will look as good as new. Read on to find out how to fix the leak.
If the seals around your fish tank have started to leak water, you need to act fast. With the pressure of the water, entire seams can start to give way and flood your surfaces in no time.
The good news is that resealing your fish tank is easier than you might think. The first step is to choose the right aquarium sealant for the job, especially if your go-to sealant isn’t fish or aquarium safe.
How to choose an aquarium safe silicone sealant:
Before you drain the tank and start applying your aquarium sealant, check all of the aquarium seams. This way you can make sure to fix all faulty seams in one go.
It’s important to apply the aquarium fish tank sealant to the inside of the tank because this will keep the seal strong under water pressure.
A great aquarium safe sealant is Unibond Trade’s Aquarium Sealant, which consists of a special aquarium grade silicone. This formula cures quickly, can withstand constant immersion in water and is resistant to both sea water and salt mist, making it perfect for fish tank repairs.
This aquarium sealant is perfect for smaller to medium sized aquariums. If you own a bigger tank, or if the glass in your aquarium is cracked, you might need a stronger adhesive. In this case we recommend talking to a professional.
