Yes Baby blue.. my wife’s favorite color :) Anyway it all of a sudden the tank has begun to leak in the corner about an inch from the base. It looks like bad manufacturing, as there is extra ceramic covering the location of the leak, :mad: I can’t tell if it is a crack. My question is there some substance that I could seal the crack with? The leak is like a tear drop. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

worldb, Welcome to the DIY Forums.
You could try silicone. You would have to make sure it is dry first. This can be done with a hair blow dryer. Use 100% silicone. The latex stuff won't work. No need to pay the extra for aquarium silicone either. Just apply it and follow the manufacturers curing time. Good luck.
