Hole in my fuel tank - Head Bone - 08-05-26

Hello, 
So after much head scratching wondering where my fuel was leaking from, I located a tiny hole (2-3mm) in the bottom of my year 2000 Fazer. In the area where its close to the bike frame. 
Rather than buying a 2nd hand tank, is it possible to get a weld on it to seal the hole? 
While I'm here, any advice on how to get the crap and gritty rust out of the tank?

If it's rusted through, I'd be concerned about what other damage is not visible inside the tank.

Simply patching one hole isn't going to fix the fundamental issue.

I see what you're saying, and I've thougt about buying a replacement. The one I saw ebay this morning was in much worse condition and were asking £115.00 ?
Maybe that's the going price?
