We keep a roll of flexseal in the boat box right next to the angle grinder and cutoff wheels. You never know when you'll get the urge to grind the boat in half.
Black? Are they MDPE or ABS? If they're ABS, like a Valterra brand tank, you can patch them permanently using a homemade concoction. You buy ABS pellets online (Ebay) and dissolve them into a paste the consistency of peanut butter with MEK. Then spread it on while it's still nice and sticky. Strong stuff.
If they're MDPE then flex tape may work for awhile, but plastic welding is the only permanent fix.
