I may look into that. This is BS that this company cant answer their phone. Not good for business.
<Edit>
Ordered.
Thanks
The stuff is messy but it works great. Has some smell to it but not near as bad as fiberglass resin. I put one coat on with brush and the other two with roller. 1 Gal was plenty to do my tank and have probably about a quart of it left over. They also got it shipped to me faster than they said. about 3 days. They told me fivejohn73738;4007035; said:
ok bummer news got a leak at bottom corner of small window toward back. Its been holding water since last sunday. Im hope it just need some more silicone around that area.
Got it all drained and silliconed. Got some hinges for the top cover of my tank today and put them on. Found a good deal on bio filter material. Left over plastic shavings/coils whatever ya want to call it. Getting enough to fill my bio chamber for $25 and extra if ever needs replaced. Sweet deal considering a 5gal bucket of bio balls is $40-50
Finally got tank to seal up. Been holding water going on two days now. Making slow progress lately. Wife finally had our twin girls about four weeks ago so have had my hands full. Plus its spring so now most of my free time is filled with custom painting.
