I am in California until Wednesday. My wife just called and says our 60 gallon tank is leaking and cannot see from where. Can someone help? She does not know what to do.

Or maybe that is not the problem and it is an easy fix. :) Water is under the tank around the black bottom frame and on the stand. Not drilled, No sump, All HOB.

It had several corals from acans, zoas, duncans, leathers, xenia, candycanes etc. in it and inverts (RBTA, long spine sea urchin, fire shrimp, snails, crabs, refugium full of life). NO fish in danger. I have two empty 20 gal tanks at home, one twenty long, and a twenty tall.
A 55 gallon quarantine tank also but it is running copper. There are about 70 gallons of RO water on site already, 20 of it mixed with salt already.

Hey no problem, I didn't turn the light back on the UV, but turned the pump back on. Your return line at the lock joints are pulled up into the tank and zip tied. I didn't notice any more water coming from the back of the tank after that. Your wife was going to check it in a bit to see if any more water was showing up.If every thing is looking dry later I think you could turn the uv light back on

Hopefully problem solved and I am SO glad the tank seams don't appear to have a leak!
Thanks again Jason and everyone else who offered and came over/called/texted/ etc. Great group of people here to relieve stress while I am 600 miles away.
