I just noticed this on the left side of the tank seam today. Tank is about 4 months old.

Please do not comment unless you know what this is.

It's a 65 gallon.

What brand tank do you have? If you report you have a Red Sea, I’d say that you likely have the beginning of a seam failure as they are notorious for failing.

Its a Marineland Perfecto 65

If it's only 4 months old, I'd imagine that's within standard warranty? I'd contact Marineland with photos and see what they say. It is a bit odd because it looks like it's starting from the outside. Usually the other way around.

Has a 5 year on it but you make a good point. It does not appear to be starting from the inside but near the outside.. Looks like Marineland wont br open Till Monday so im white knuckleing till then. Moght go to the LFS i bought it from and get their opinion.
