Cracked tank Red Sea Reefer???

[Sparent25]

Hi, does anyone have experience replacing a tank that has a crack with Red Sea? Red Sea Reefer 170 that is still water tight but has a crack in the worst (bottom of tank) area? I’m curious if they let you purchase just the replacement tank (And cost if so) or if there is any protocol around this? Thanks in advance for your feedback I have a note into customer support but they are standard business hours
Thanks!!

I'll pose the question for the forum to answer: Can a glazer replace the bottom pane for a fraction of the cost of a new tank?

Im no expert but i think the entire tank would need to be re siliconed...

agree. a glazer should be able to bang that out quickly.

That fish tank direct is always so overpriced on any tank I see they sell. Could buy an entire new reefer 170 for 200 more for what they want for the tank minus shipping.
