Re: Crack in tank
It might spread. You could take a glue gun and fill in the crack and wilst the glue is still hot take a straight object and flatten/spread the glue.

Any thing to know about messor founding?
Hi all
My friend caught a messor queen and gave it to me.
I know they are simple to keep but some where on the forum I read they sometimes foraged during founding so I have her a small out world. I offered some honey and sesame seeds. Is there any thing else I should know?
