Hello! New to reefing and saw a tank for sale for 300 and negotiated it down to 150. Have to say it was mostly an impulse buy but I just liked the way it looked. But reading online after I got it home I'm a little worried I might have bought a dud. I asked the guy I bought it from if it was a custom made or if he knew the maker. He said he got it from his friend who was gonna throw it away and was selling it because he got a bigger tank. I'll attach photos. Can I fix it up? The scratches im not concerned about its the seams. The front panel is a smidge under 1" thick. The sides are 1" thick. The tank is 54"across the front. 32" on the sides and 10" on the back and 42" high. Also any tips on how I can plumb it. I cant reach the bottom outlet(the 4 going into the tank) shold I just seal it and hide it with rock? Also will be removing that bottom pvc in the middle of the tank.(unless its useful for something?) ***I have filled it to the top with water. Hasn't busted yet. Will let it sit for a few days. Unless im told there is repairs I should make right away***
Thank you for reading!

Ok I think most of it is because the edges of the acrylic are rounded off.But there are a few spots where its a little farther in. also the bubbles on the back top brace. Hope someone that has experience with this can help out
