Leak testing tank?
After completely re-sealing my tank and then trying to patch it several times, I completely stripped and resealed it AGAIN. I let it cure for 3 days and today I'm leak testing it. It's been about 7-8 hours full of water and there are no signs of leaks! YAY!!!!

My question is, can I go ahead and assume it's leak proof? Or do I need to let it sit longer?

i would leave it for a full 24 hours to be sure...and also, be careful when moving it and retest again because ive seen tanks settle the wrong way and leak all over again..so make sure its nice and level in its new spot!
