Its hard to explain, and a picture won't help. What happened was when I got the tank from Darren, I put it under the balcony in the backyard, and filled it with water since it needed a good clean. I left it over night. When I came back the next day some of the water had leaked out, and I could tell by the wet cement. I looked at all the seams, and there seemed to be a small drop of water coming out from one of the seams. Extremely small, but a leak nevertheless. I figured I might as well put some silicone on the cracks all around just to be safe. Also the tank was sitting outside at his place for a little while, so I figured it may of been damaged by weather changes.
