Should I be concerned about this separating?
I’ve had this tank running for about 2 months and did notice the bubbles in the silicone between the front glass and the sides. It’s a Fluval flex 32.

that would concern me - is it a used tank? If i were you I'd start looking into a replacement ASAP for when/if it begins to leak.
It’s was a display from my LFS. Was only set up with sand and decoration. No water

I'd try talking to them about a refund or something as well.

I would not trust that one bit. Especially with the amount of money we keep inside our tanks.

I agree, that’s not trustworthy. Contact the shop you got it from and share these pics. Maybe they’ll ya it back or trade you out a new one.

I would contact fluval as well. They responded quickly the last time I emailed them
