Leaking fountain - need underwater sealant

Posted by sawdustmite WI (My Page) on

I have a leaking water fountain. The fountain is made of that super-duper plastic stuff and has held up for about 5 years. Now it has a slow leak somwhere. I am looking for a sealant for the entire bottom or just the crack if I can find it. Sealant must of course work underwater.

Marine silicone. It should be in with the regular silicone caulk at your local big box. If not, try a boat shop/dealer.
Aquarium sealer should work too, I've only ever seen it in small tubes though. Pet stores with fish or a specialty shop should be able to supply this.

Hey nmgirl - I appreciate the advice. Marine silicone sounds like the perfect fix. Thanks
