Hi everyone,
I am new at this site and i need help on my 125G freshwater fishtank.

here we go, i bought this tank in summer time and was busy DIY of canopy and stand for my living room but i could not finish it in mean time(before winter) it is sitting in my garage.

My question, Is it ok to leave my tank in garage during winter in garage?(i live close to toronto and winter temp is in range between -10 to -18 with out wind) what should i do? :huh:this tank is heavy and my stand and canopy is not ready yet. :confused:
Any suggestion :feedback:
 
It wouldn't bother me to do so.

so you mean if the tank is outside in -10C to -18C, it's silicon won't get weaker, right? i mean i dont want this tank to get damaged.:cry:
 
I think it will be OK outside. Afterall, the same silicone that is used to waterproof windows and such is used outside, so it should be OK.
 
I live in NW Pennsylvania, which doesn't get quite as cold as you but, I had a 30 gal out in my unheated garage over last winter brought it in just a couple of months ago and filled it up with no problems of leaks. The coldest I can remember from last year is 4 degrees F, which I think is about what you are looking at up there.

By the way, Welcome to AC!
