if its a black tank then its ABS and this is what you need:
ABS repair
All my tanks are ABS, fresh/grey/black. I fixed a major leak on my fresh water but it's back but not as big. Unfortunately my issue is getting to the bad part. This kit is excellent and if you follow the instructions properly it works very well. its a solvent welding process, similar to PVC glue. You could probably get by with regular ABS glue used for plumbing pipe if the hole is small and not under pressure (at the bottom of the tank). Mine is cracked at the seam where the side meets the top so is up between the frame rails. I need to drop the tank down partially to get it fixed properly, using a mirror and drop light just didn't get it good enough.
