The tank is a brand new 90g Seapora cornerflo (rimmed) and I just noticed this. Not sure exactly what it is, but it’s showing in the front seal.

yea that's not good also has bubble in the silicone where did you get it i would be asking for a replacement
There’s no air bubbles in the silicone, it just looks like the glass has pushed up against the front pane and the silicone in that area is thinner. It’s filled with water and doesn’t seem to be progressing or causing any issues.
