And the air bubbles in the glue is for a much tighter seal my good friend [emoji77]

I hope @Ramasule doesn't mind my borrowing this.

Haha well joke's on me i guess

I wouldn't be surprised though if the actual builder had a similar attitude... It definitely sounds like it

Wow did you just assume tacoshells gender?

Psst tacoshell is just trying to get laughs.

I hope you get your tank issues sorted out. Thats no fun :/

I will tell you this.

I would remove the thread and consider legal action if manufact is not cooperating. Keep artfully acrylic as your industry expert / witness.

No leaks I test my aquariums under high pressure to ensure no leaks I preform some of the hardest test on aquariums and every one I build and ship out have went through the test and have passed with great success.. now I can't stress enough on the shipping in Crats I pack the aquariums with the best packaging foam to ensure no damage now it's possible that there could be a mistake in a faulty seal it happens but we have a policy of 60days returning no charge and a lifetime warranty on our tanks

Any updates on the tank?

Y2KReef · Jan 20, 2017

Update:: This entire week haas gone by and I have not heard from the builder. I call him and he seems confused. He mistakes me for another customer who is also returning a tank. Gee, what a surprise. He is then silent on the phone!! I said what is the status of the return?? Are still hesitates. Then basically says he put in a return to the trucking company and they should be contacting me. I said I've heard nothing and it has been a week. He said "well you know how trucking companies are........" He's definitely a dope!!

Call the truck company yourself. Ask him for the information. Good luck!

I really feel bad you are going through this.
I hope you at least consider posting your experience in our Vendor Feedback thread.

After every thing is done you have tell who the builder is. He is a joke

Y2KReef · Jan 20, 2017

He is still denying it left his shop like that!! He also said he has to pay the shipping company to return it. Which he will do, no problem. So if the shipping company damaged it, why should anyone pay to move this tank???
