Bought used leaking tank, what now?

[GoldenGardner]

HI Everyone, I bought a new to us tank from a lovely fellow about an hour away. He sold us his full set up, with cabinet and enough stuff to probably outfit 4 more tanks. Really quality stuff too. Much higher end then I would have bought. So we're basically happy. The tank had some scale on the side and while I was out running some errands today, my husband decided to help me out by cleaning the scale off the tank. Well... now the tank leaks. 

So we need to buy a new tank for this set up. The tank is 36" long by just over 12" wide. It looks like Petco doesn't have a 29" gallon tank that is that narrow and long. Where can I get a tank that will fit the stand? I am in NC.

sounds like a 38 gallon

another option is repairing the leak

I wish petco let you search by length and width.

A UNS 90L is approximately the same footprint as the Aqueon 38.

Do look into repairing it first! It’s a little bit of a pain but it’s not hard.

I don’t think the coop has a video on this so I hope it’s okay if I share a different youtuber’s:
