Hi everyone,

I made a rookie mistake that resulted in the top glass support for my 120g tank breaking. I currently have clamps on the tank holding everything together until i can come up with a way to repair this problem. Has anyone had to replace the glass support that hold there tank together? if so any advise?

the tank still has water in it as i have nowhere else to put my livestock.

Please any expert advise is greatly appreciated.
 
Keep the clamp on it and measure the inside of the tank to get the width of the tank. Then get a piece of glass cut to fit in there and silicone it in place.

Also after you silicone the glass in use masking tape to hold the glass in place while the silicone cures, takes roughy 24 hrs
