So I've got a tank that has been sitting empty since I think around 2008 (indoors, air conditioned). Before that it held saltwater for somewhere around 3 years as I recall.
I'm currently wondering if this tank is still usable (again for saltwater). The silicone still looks fine to the eye to me (1/2" glass fwiw). This is a roughly 4ft 120g tank but isn't a standard tank - it was custom built (by AGE I seem to recall) and also has a PVC bottom and an external overflow attached with silicone as well. I do plenty of DIY but I think re-sealing a tank of this quality is beyond my skillset if that's what it needs.
Thoughts? Still usable? I really don't want to invest in a whole new setup and then have an old tank break a seal and have 120g of water on my floor. Thx in advance.
