is my tank about to explode?

[moru]

Just bought an Aqueon 40g breeder and noticed one problem with the glass (picture below). The picture on the left is what I see in every tank. The one on the right is what I see on one corner of my tank.
So, is this normal? Thanks!

Can't really tell what I'm looking at but if your unsure then have a back up plan and keep an eye on it.

Sure hope you won't have a catastrophe.

Na, no worries. I've had those in my 8' long tank forever.

No need to worry about the inner bead of silicon. Only worry about the part that is between the glass

Looks ok but a backup plan is something we all should have ready.

I see your concern.
Is this only down one side or all 4?
There shouldn't be any gap between the glass panes.
If the glass is a 1/4" then you should see a 1/4" of butted glass

My bubbles are inbetween the panes of glass.
With his, theres no need to worry because the silicone bead does nothing for the integrity of the bond. So theres nothing to worry about.

Thanks for the reply.

The glass is 1/4" and I see 1/4" of butted glass.
Just a little bit worry about the white stuff between the glass.

You are right, a backup plan would always be better than no plan. Thanks.
