The base on the bottom just unscrews. Don't put juice in the drip tip, that center hole is the air chamber that you draw from.
And turn it upside down.
it doesn't seem to unscrew is there like a certin tool i could use to unscrew it or something else i could do to get it off
You could wrap a paper towel around the base and use pliers to try and twist it. If you have one of those rubber jar openers, something that will give you a better grip on it, try that. Sounds like it's over-tightened.
You really do have to twist pretty hard for those tanks. It seems counterintuitive since you are twisting gaskets, not threading. You will get the hang of it. You have to twist it just as hard to reseat it. Make sure you check that your coil is screwed in well before re assembly, too. The gaskets may be a tight fit, but I've never once had one of these leak, so it's a good thing.

rubber dish gloves or a balloon or something like that will make it simple to get a grip and unscrew new or tight tanks. I cut a small piece off the end of a Theraband, works perfect. Then use a tiny amount of e-juice to lubricate the seals before reassembly.
All this ^^^
Jar opening pads work great too, thats what I use for this tank. Still to this day even with the O rings lubed up it is still very tight and hard to open up.
I have rubber grip garden gloves with my build kit and juice storage. They are essential, no need for pliers and rubber bands, less chance of breaking something.
