Biggest problem with any type of patch is getting it to stick. You tank is made from ABS, which means your plastic pipe solvent bonding chemicals should work better than anything else. Especially if you can find ABS sheeting. The other option is Horrible Freight has a cheap plastic welder and sells ABS rod. To get a true chemical bond, the repair material should be the same as what you are repairing.
BTW: When you got to replace the tank, check out Tank Depot. They have a very large selection of tanks, and will install fittings anywhere you want them. I replaced my grey tank for just over 200 bucks. Initially I patched it, but it had stress cracks all over the lower front edge - ran over a deer.
