240 gallon acrylic used seams

[Fishkeepah4]

Hello,
I recently purchased a 240 gallon acrylic tank and noticed the seams have some white spots and what looks to be bubbles. Is this something I should be resealing? Or is this normal?

No water in the tank, no cracks, 3/4 material. Used tank.

It is hard to tell if something is going on or the tank was made poorly. Air could have been sucked in during the bonding process. Its not crazing, it is between the seams. There are things you can do if you wish. Try to fill the big gaps with normal solvent. Or tilt the tank 45 degrees and pour a bead of thickened solvent (weldon 40) on the inside seam. Or weld sq rod to the inside seam. Or do nothing.

Is it possible to apply the solvent on the seam with the tank in place?

If I reinforce with square rod to the seams, would I still use weld 40? Or would weld 16 be fine.
