Hi All, I'm looking for input on a 1400 gallon, 10'x52"x52" monster aquarium I am looking at purchasing. The problem is that it is used, and it has issues-
-Been sitting in a garage for several years, never filled by current owner (he bought it and decided it was too big)
-Top acrylic is cracked in 3 places allegedly due to first owner using metal halides
-Current owner says it has a 3" bow when full. Acrylic on 10' sides is 1.25" thick.
So the question is, how do we feel about the integrity of the aquarium once the top is repaired? Looking for input for people with experience in monster tanks as well as people in the aquarium building industry. Thank you!!
