Long story short -

Aprox. 200 gallon Freshwater SA & CA Cichlids (pics in my gallery)

My hose from the syphon to the wet/dry was leaking for about two weeks - carpet getting moldy under tank - have "children" in new 33 gal. trash cans with 1700 Rio and a digital heater - major water changes to come as we are repairing area!

Now that I have the opportunity - the tank is empty and drying out -
SHOULD I RESEAL THE SILICONE?

It was not the tank that was leaking - but it is going on 15 years old.

Resealing that tank will be one hell of a job!

Should I take the opportunity or go with "If It Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It" ?

Thanks for the advice!
 
there are ups and downs. a 200 gallon is pretty big... if you break it or cant put it back together then your in for a ride :D. but also it'll stop the risk of it coming undone later when you least need it. id say go for it!. lol think.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................i could probally fit in there. lol waste of space
