*Emergency* Leaking overflow + Seam issue

[i_declare_bankruptcy]

Hi all, I've had this CDA tank for about a year. My overflow is leaking for some reason (all over my brand new floor yikes), and during inspection I noticed the bottom front seam of the tank showing some pretty serious bubbles. I don't remember those being there when I filled the tank -- I would've sent it back. The tank is super stout, every seam is braced and reinforced with more glass so I'm surprised to see this. I'm wondering if this is something I should be concerned about?

In addition, due to this circumstance, I am strongly considering downsizing to an AIO -- I just can't have this kind of stress with the bigger tank seam and external overflow acting up with my job and upcoming travel. In this case I would have two fish: a tomini tang and a blue tang that would need new homes (and a ton of RBTAs if anyone is interested). If anyone would be willing to trade equipment for them I'd be happy to work something out.

I am in the 92677 (south OC) area and trying to figure out what to do right now. I need to get under the tank to clean the mess that just happened, which means I need to move the tank, which means draining it anyways, so at this point I'm wondering if I should just commit to the switch and be done with it even if the tank doesn't have issues. If that's the case, where can I find a stout tank around here? I may contact CDA and see if they'll build me a different tank, but that would take time.

I am going to try not to stress about this according to CDA's response... but I would like to know what everyone thinks anyways. "Trust, but verify."

Just got word back from CDA... they said it's absolutely not an issue which is comforting. Does everyone here agree? It looks unsettling to me but the tank is so stout I can see why it might not be an issue. I don't see it on any other seam though which I find interesting.
