Please help. Plywood tank leaking.

One spot at the bottom of the back. One in the right bottom corner on the back and one on the front left. All others have stopped besides the one pictured.

Empty tank and dry, apply pond shield

What have you used to seal it? Is it fibreglass? Epoxy paint? Is the ply bowing?

I just started filling it up today maybe 2 inches. Pond armour and fiberglass on all seams

Would be helpful to know how you built this tank...materials used, overall dimensions, thickness and grade of plywood. Need some details and we can get you straightened out. I tend to over build when it comes to plywood tanks, but sure better than a leak!

Did you perform a leak test, fill then wait and check for leak repeat all the way up to the top, or did you fill the entire aquarium?

Ignore this, and if an admin is watching delete this and the quoted message please, as I did not fully read your previous post.

Greetings! How was this situation resolved? I have a leaking situation here with a used 300 gallon lagoon style tank.
