    My 5' Jewel Aquarium has a leak at the base. It's not a crack. More likely a failure of the sealant after 12 years.

    Can someone advise me what silicone to use? or point me to someone who can carry out this repair in Singapore.

    Thanks.

    You could go to N30, I hear they are bad at building but pretty good at repair.

    Thanks. I did call them, but they don't do repairs, even a sealant fix. Pity.

    Re: Aquarium Leak

    most probably you need to redo the whole tank..

    No, but the office she works in has a couple huge tanks from them in the waiting room. She told me about them when they got installed because they make some insane aquariums and obviously I am into that

    Most of the tank makers do not repair tanks unless its their own under warranty.

    You could try this shop. Relatively new so may be eager to please. https://www.aquarium-ss.com/

    Anyway your tank will need to be torn apart (not just a patch job) and new silicon reapplied so might not be worthwhile.

    You could try to DIY (many youtube demos and if you are up to it) or use it as a terrarium.
