Anyone know who can do acrylic repairs?

One of my buddies just bought a 400 gallon acrylic tank and one of the corners is chipped off of it. Still holds water fine but he just anted me to reach out and see if there is anyone in the area that is able to do some kind of repair to make it look a little cleaner?

Acrylic repairs are tough because they are chemically fused. So it's almost impossible to remove a panel.

I'd call an acrylic tank builder to see if there is anything that can be done

not sure how epoxy reacts with acrylic but can fill it in with 5 min epoxy and then when fully cured can shave and sand it to match.

take a 1 inch x 1 inch x 1/2 thick acrylic square and bond to the inside of the tank. That will insure it will not break the seal. I have had it on my tank for 8+ years not issues. Safest play and you won't notice much since sand will be covering it.
