Holding tank leaking

I have a 2000 Express. The holding tank is leaking. Any suggestions on how I go about replacing.

Check with a good metal marine fabricator. Depending on where the leak is located and what caused it it may be repairable. On my last boat I had a galvanic issue that weakened the welds (stainless) so we decided to replace. Used a plasma cutter to get old tank out and then fabricated two smaller tanks that were able to be dropped in through the access. If you don't need a lot of water a single smaller tank may do. I also looked into installing a bladder but found the cost not that far off having a new tank fabricated.

Good luck

Are you asking about the the waste ( black water ) holding tank?    That's a s@#$%^ job.   Is it metal or plastic?

Yes it the black water tank. Vent clogged. When I pumped out top of tank collapsed and broke tank. The only way to get same size in is to remove fiberglass liner all around back cabin. If we cut out floor i have to put in a much smaller tank.
I have a email into Tiara to see if it is possible to remove liner or if there is another place I can put tank
