Hello Everyone, I recently purchased a 100 gallon acrylic tank. It came with 3 drill holes that i want to cover up/patch. Im worry about leaks etc. Any recommendations, tips etc that could be helpful? Would i have to get the same thickness of acrylic to patch it up?

TIA

Could you just put in new threaded bulkheads and screw a caps on them? Or you might be able to put a cap on the existing bulkheads. Then you could cover it up on the inside with something matching the background. I doubt that repairing the acrylic itself is an option, but maybe someone knows better.

Im liking the idea of maybe just capping off the bulkheads. My only thing is now that the current background is painted blue, Might try a razor and switch it to black so it can blend in with the bulkheads. Thanks for the advice.
