Hey guys, so I ordered a custom aquarium and I don't want to mention the vendors name yet to make sure I am not giving them bad publicity. I could just be overreacting, but I could really use your opinions to help me out here. The tank is 72x30x30 and I went to go see it today and thought that some of the silicone work was a bit sloppy. While I can live with sloppy silicone, I am concerned about potential integrity of the tank. Due to the size of the tank, integrity is one of the most important aspects to me.
On the back left bottom area of the tank, I noticed the trim is not flush with the back panel and the silicone that is filled there is fairly sloppy. I don't have experience with tank building, so I ask if anyone thinks if this is poorly built in terms of structural integrity:
Here is an example of the trim at the front right bottom area of the tank. Once again some sloppy silicone work and some scratches on the trim, but I don't think this is too bad. What do you think?
Here is a picture of the armored seam on the front left, you can see that their is missing silicone between the armored seam and the left panel. Will this cause me issues in the future?
Thanks ahead for your feedback.
