Can you pm me more info on the broken pane situation? I'm seriously interested.

 

[Beckbacca]

Basically tank was up running for a year. One day we heard what sounded like a shotgun go off. One of the sidepanes had a huge crack and that was all sheet wrote. Tank is under warranty so manufacturer said they will replace the pane for free, but its like 2,000.00 to ship the tank to texas and back for them to fix it. so i just want to get rid of it. You can try to silicon it yourself if you want, or find someone to do it locally I guess. Manufacturer has no idea what happened. The only reason I do not have the replacement pane is because they cannot find the blueprints for the tank. They want the panel cut out so we can send them the exact meaurements of it. The tank has like 2 inch steel bracing at top and bottom, so its impossible to get an accurate mesaurement without cutting it apart.

pic of broken side pane ?

wow, that’s terrible. Will they refund you the tank or replace with a new?
Shipping the tank to them sounds like terrible customer service and warranty

[Lam'sReef]

Wow, really? I'll take it

 

[Beckbacca]

yeah, we are remodeling house and just want it out. i am done with this hobby for now. tons of equipment to list when i get time as well. you will literally need like 8-10 guys to move it. and you should get suction cups if you can

 

[Lam'sReef]

let me know when can I pick it up?

Thx

 

[Beckbacca]

I work from home. pretty much always here. will be here all weekend as well.

Wow for a free tank it would be worth while to rent a uhaul and drive it to Texas for the repair. Sure it would take a few days but the rental and gas would be cheaper than paying for shipping.

OP, unless refunded by the manufacturer, I can only imagine how disgusted you must be with the whole situation.

 

[Beckbacca]

Yeah i am over it. When the tank cracked I lost over 20k worth of corals and fish, easy. Then I bought a new 220 gallon tank from another manufacturer. had it up for less than a year. the whole ordeal has pretty much killed the hobby for me. that tank is broken down and needs to be sold as well as a million peices of equipment. My wife has been yelling at me to get it out of the house for a year and a half. I just want to move on. I spent over 10k on the tank/ stand and wrapping alone.
