How long to water test?

[schachnerd]

I have not used my 75g tank for 5 years. How long do I need to leave water in the tank to test for leaks. Do I need to reseal it? I would appreciate any comments on this.

I'm new to this site and I hope to make your next meeting.

Thank you, Dawn

I would say 48hours at least, more time can not hurt

if it leaks you will need to reseal it

Thank you for the help and the Welcome. I was thinking a couple weeks. If the tank leaks, I will be asking for help on how to reseal it! LOL
