Red Sea Tank Seal Failing

[kylebr0die]

I was cleaning my tank today and I noticed an air bubble in my Red Sea Reefer 900G2+. The tank is about 1 year old. Link to video below. I've sent Red Sea an email about this but I'm really concerned this could start leaking at anytime. Anyone care to guess how long I have?

I watched the video... you have to drain that immediately. I had a red sea bust a seam and flood my house. I hate Red Sea with a passion. The front seam busting was(probably still is) a major issue. Overall terrible company

If you dont have one already, hit up your local tractor supply and get a 150gal Brute stock tank and transfer everything in there ASAP and drain your tank. You wouldnt want to wait until it actually leaks then panic and rush to get everything.

That looks bad. Good luck to you, I hope you get everything out in time.

If the tank's only 1y old, that's still under warranty. From memory the new tanks have a 3 year cover.

I wonder if the warranty covers the livestock and the floor when the seam fails lol

I’ve heard about the bubbles in the seams before but never really saw them. Wow.

Best of luck. And dry thoughts coming your way.

Nope. Nothing covers livestock. Homeowners MAY cover damages to the floor (mine will)
