Pool epoxy, from the inside. It sets up underwater, and the pressure from the inside will help it seal.
Or get a plastic welder and weld it with multiple layers.
There's a small hole in my sand filter tank and it's spraying water. Looks like a couple of pin holes not a lot of water loss. Can I fix this? Suggestions on how to do this if possible. If not what do you guys recommend I replace it with. Another of the same or is there a better way.
Thanks in advance for your help.

jb weld! i used some on the side of the autopilot manifold i burnt through with a soldering iron (long story) and used jb weld..no water leaks, stands up to the pressure, stuck fine to the pvc.
Thanks guys...I may give JB Weld a try on the outside of the tank. I really don't want to mess with going inside the tank. I'll sand it good and give it a try.
Thanks for the reply........Jay

Just out of curiousity... what kind of tank is this?
I have a small hole (crack) on the inside of my old filter but I may patch it and hold onto the tank.
Let me know how the repair turns out.
Thanks.
I was up late the other night watching TV.
Why would anyone use anything else but
