I fill my tank and after about 2 days it's completely empty. The tank is turned off and i have no clue where it's leaking from. i don't hear any hissing noises at all.

Is this a simple o-ring problem or is this a little more complicated?

Get it filled and throw the tank in a bucket of water.

Find the leak.

Or fill it and listen.

Mine was leaking from the fill nipple area. I took it apart, cleaned it.. re taped it. But I haven't had air to test it yet.

yes, that will work, thats what they do for hydro testing pretty much, except i believe they use more pressure

if you dont feel like dunking your tank in a bucket o water you can use a mix of dishsoap and water and watch for bubbles. Could aslo retape and fill and see if it empties in a couple days.
