........in an established aquarium. Not one that needs to take a lot of pressure. I need to seal up a couple of baffles in my sump(using weld on 3 I believe, the really thin stuff) and was wondering how long before I could refill it and turn the return pump back on.
thanks, Chris

I think about 24 hours depending on how thick of a seam it is, if it's only like 1/8 probably 12.

i would say 24hrs. i built a tank and it had 24hrs of cure time and all is well
