Air bubbles in silicon

26-09-2004, 02:21 PM

I noticed that my tank has air bubbles in the silicon which holds the sides together. Its a 3x1.5x1.5ft tank with 6mm thick glass. Do you think its a sign of the tank breaking?

The tank structure is weakened already from the bubbles. Monitor very closely especially if they are getting more/bigger. Best is you can change to a new tank ASAP.

When your tank crash(OS crash), its time to cleanup(reformat hard drive) and setup(install OS) again and add new livestock(re-install software).
