Track where the leak is coming from. Then You have to empty the fish tank to mend it. Once it is dry, patch the leak with aqua safe silicon, and let it cure for 24 hours.

Or you can choose to get a new tank altogether.

Anyway how old is your fish tank? If its too old, then it might not be advisable to mend it as the other parts may leak soon due to old age.

A leaky tank is the worst nightmare. Quickly get it fix with silicone and definitly NOT superglue

If it's bad, I'd remove the whole section and then work on re-siliconing the entire side just to be sure it won't occur again (at least not on the same side). Not too confident about patch repairs myself.

If it is a small tank, you may consider to buy new one if it is not costly.
Aquarium silicon is good if you know how to use it, but the price may make you think otherwise.

If it is a big tank, and not too old. Yes by all means silicon it since less then $20 can save the tank then why not
