Is that a bulkhead fitting where the crack is? Was it overtightened? I wouldn't use the clay, id instead use two part epoxy. Take the bulkhead out as I'm sure the crack extends underneath the nut shown in the pictture, otherwise it'll start seeping from your bulkhead.I found out that a part of the inside of my overflow has a crack around 3/4 inch.
The leak outside is not that bad. its a very slow.
can i use the epoxy aqua clay and cover the crack inside?
im not too sure if it was overtightened. but i dont think i can take the bulkhead out. my hand can barely fit in the overflow. much less unscrew it. and its siliconed in place too.Is that a bulkhead fitting where the crack is?

Could definitely try. But it may start leaking from underneath the bulkhead nut.im not too sure if it was overtightened. but i dont think i can take the bulkhead out. my hand can barely fit in the overflow. much less unscrew it. and its siliconed in place too.
is there any other way? like use the 2 part epoxy and cover the crack?
This is what i did under the bulkhead nut, because i thought the leak is in between the glass and the bulkhead. turns out theres a crack. i used the epoxy clayCould definitely try. But it may start leaking from underneath the bulkhead nut.

Agreed that's why I was asking if the crack was in a main pane on the tank or just a pane on the overflow. The latter is much less of an issue. Crack in the main pane is a timebomb for sure!Yea what he [emoji121]️said...
Your tank is now a ticking time bomb dude. I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night knowing that it could give it at any moment.
Good luck tho and I hate to see this for you
