Opinion on Aquarium Seams

[vividwrasse]

Yesterday I received my second FijiCube 76 INT. The first came in with a crack in the lower front corner. This one has some seams that make me a little uncomfortable. I was hoping to get some other peoples’ opinions on if the tank is safe, or if I should pressure FijiCube to send me a third replacement tank. What do you all think?

Looks Questionable to me. Large bubbles in the seams. I would send it back.

Yeah, that’s my thought as well. It’s going to be a fight to get them to send another replacement though. They made me pay freight for the first replacement. I have already brought the seam issue on this tank to their attention, and they dismissed my concerns as normal production aberrations.

The first one Shouldn't be an issue but the 2nd one is a huge red flag for me.

If I were you I would ask for a full refund and buy a tank from a different manufactuer if they won't take care of you.

Thanks.

Yeah, you are probably right. I had even read the stories about their defects that they refuse to recognize, but I said to myself, “what are the chances?” I guess we get what we pay for…
