Aqueon tank blowout

So the way to fix this ? Drain , dry and then silicone in glass brace ? That’s how the old oceanic tanks were done . I still have 3of those from the 90s and they were used when I bought them . Incredible that they are still strong as ever .
 
Update for the people that helped me a few days ago. I was able to save all livestock all fish are good and so far haven’t lost any coral (outside of the few Cyphastrea and favias that are encrusted on the rocks that are in buckets). For now I have everything in an innovative marine 15 gal. That will just hold on to them for now as I have placed an order for a Red Sea 425 g3 that should be arriving between thanksgiving and Christmas. I would just like to say thanks to the people that helped me get through what has so far been my worst day in the hobby.
PS if you’re wondering where all the coral that was filling a 55 gallon tank I lost a lot of sps and euphylia coral recently due to a salinity swing. But I’ll take 100% of the blame for that one😂
