I recently purchased this red sea reefer 450(92)gal for $300. Everything looked pretty good except for the front right vertical seal has what looks to be an air gap in it. Should this be resealed? Just the front redone? Or the whole thing rebuilt? The sump does have a small crack on one of the long panels that I plan to replace also

Before you put ANY MONEY into a Redsea Tank, with a SEAM FAILURE ISSUE, you need to search these forums for REDSEA TANK and read all the Seam Failure threads. They are notorious for seams coming apart. Personally I would not put my money into one. I'd look for other options.

FYI there are 3 Redsea Fail threads in the first 2 pages on the Reef Aquarium Discussion Forum!!
