    disturbing sighn in my tank.

    I have noticed a build up of salt right around the bottum of my tank right above the wood framming or the wood that surounds the tank. Is this a leak and what should I do. If it is a leak it has to be on the bottum. I will try to get a pic soon but I cleaned it off to see if it goes away.
