My new 2600 gallon plywood tank project
- Thread starter VLDesign
- Start date
2 leaks so far.
1 In the upper 2" of the right side near corner by window.
2nd still working on the location. Dropped another 4" of water to see if the leak stops. This one is also on right side on the back wall.
So basically to identify the area of the leak (Asked earlier) if a leak develops you need to drain the tank until the leak slows down. Then wait a half hour to see if the leak fully stops. If is does then you know the leak is above the current water line. If not, then drain some more until the leak stops.
99% of the time the leak will develop on the same side as the leak (Within a few feet). So if water is dripping on the right side of the tank, chances are very slim that the actual leak is on the left side.
Will keep yup updated.
