A local reefer had one of those in his office and back in October came in on a Monday to find his floors soaked and his RS625 leaking. There is a higher possibility of you getting a leak than you think.When I look at the amazing build quality of my Red Sea 625. I really doubt it will ever fail. Unless maybe you set it up completely wrong and scrape away at the seems. They seem bulletproof to me.
We’ll see in time but I seriously doubt I’ll be proven wrong.
That's a g2, right?A local reefer had one of those in his office and back in October came in on a Monday to find his floors soaked and his RS625 leaking. There is a higher possibility of you getting a leak than you think.
No idea, OP on the FB group didn't say.That's a g2, right?
I haven't heard of any G2's blowing personally, but it is a rather new line of tanks.
Looking the video, waterbox aquariums are made by the same factory in China that Red Sea uses.
Like Apple, “designed in the USA, assembled in China”.
As for the floating front panel - both tanks have the exact same design where the front panel is not supported by anything.
Given that Waterbox have only been around since 2018, it’s probably still too early to tell if their tanks are any better than Red Sea.

No idea, never compared glass thickness, ect on a like for like basis.Perhaps made in the same factory, but certainly not the exact same specs ie measurements, glass thickness etc.

Neither at the initial QA stage - in this case on premise tank tests for leaks that only catches bad workmanship, not design.It doesn't matter where it's made, the important thing is the engineering design, production oversight, and final QA testing.
Many very high spec items are manufactured in China, the cost cutting that causes issues are not normally at the production stage.
Statistically speaking given enough time, tank failures from both companies will fall along a standard distribution curve.

And given enough time we all get duds.Given enough time the sun will run out of fuel

Like this guy. Go read up.
Had the exact same problem, and the tank plus stand went in the trash and purchased something more reliable.
But to each his own.
If you like that brand, buy it.
Waterbox Frag 165.6 not level, gap on 2 corner, customer support tell me it's "normal"?!?
So, I got a Brand New beautiful waterbox frag 165.6 from waterbox aquarium. Fully assembled and find out it has a big gap on almost all corner, I can slide the paper almost everywhere under the tank. The front right corner is the worst of the bunch, I can see a 2mm gap by my eyes if I look it...www.reef2reef.com
Here you go.Not a compelling argument or comparison at all.
