So you know that silicon clear stuff that lines the edges of your tank glass to hold them together and create a seal? What if that stuff starts to peel away or the seal breaks? How would I fix it. I have seen peoples tanks fully drain and destroy their stands, as well as killing their fish. (Sorry if something is spelled wrong)

Is this a used tank? A reseal is typically the only way to fix this, which would include a complete breakdown of the tank.

I am currently using it at the very beginning stages of my reef tank. It is used and I cant take it a part because it will mess up the cycle (I think)

Do you have pictures? Cycle would be the last thing you're worried about if it springs a leak
