Sucks. Unfortunately the tank was bought used. So no warranty. Plan is to move the tank outside. Put it on saw horses and fill it up to find out where it's leaking. That will happen after the holiday when I can find the man power.
Did you get it custom made? Maybe in the market for a new one if I can't get this one fixed.Wow that's depressing.
I just picked up a used 210 earlier this month as well. Going to start cycling it this weekend.
Seeing your disaster has me worried.
Good luck with finding leak

That's what I was thinking too. I've been thinking hard and only thing I can think of is that it the tank was not completely level. I remember when filling the tank that there was about a 5 second delay from when water started flowing in to one overflow and then in to the other. The tank is about 6 years old so maybe that stress got it. When I first did the water test I made sure it was level and it held water for 3 weeks. After draining I moved it about a foot and half and filled it with saltwater. I didn't think too check the level again because I moved it such a little way and it was on hard wood but 4 days later this happened. I think redoing the seals is something I'd want to get professionally done.Sorry to hear about the leak! It should be fixable you will, but you will have to remove the silicone from the seams and reseal them. I would go ahead and reseal the whole thing, instead of just doing the one that is leaking. Good luck!
Sounds like a great deal!It was custom made. I picked it up used though. Was really only looking for a 6' tank. But traded a 75g with equipment for this tank plus stand skimmer and lights couldn't pass up the deal. Also picked up about 175lbs of sand for $80
