sergebmw3 Posted April 22, 2011 Author Share Posted April 22, 2011 are you serious !!!!!!!!!?????? HOW did they Fix it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrybeck Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Yeah I just read the story last night on another forum. They had some pictures of the tank being set up (again) linked in as well. I'm not sure how they "fixed" it - if I recall it blew the lower rear seal, so they may have been able to re-weld the acrylic. Or if the rear panel was damaged they could have replaced just that I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold B Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 With that much water I don't know if i'd be "Repairing" it. If Insurance is involved i'd be getting a BRAND new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
