It was all going so well until .........
Got a bubble in the seam, its on the initial blob that held the tank together, I'm guessing it happened when I took the cramps off and the tank must have shifted slightly. Its only happened on this blob though.
Am gutted as the rest of the seams came out pretty well.
After doing loads of searches on the web it seems bubbles in aquarium seams are quite common but normally they are small and spread through out the entire seam.
Some people say that while they are unsightly they pose no structural issues.
others say they are always a potential problem and should be checked regularly.
I guess its down to the size of the bubble and where it is.
I might as well water test the tank any way, if I press hard on the glass in front of the bubble there is no movement of the bubble so its sealed in well.
What are peoples thoughts? any one got a bubble in the seam on your tanks or had any experience with them?
Its going to take a long time to dismantle and clean the silicone off if I have to
injecting silicone works well but if you use clear silicone you will get an out line around the initial blob. If I used black silicone you wouldn't see this.
