Thanks for the replies guys, the first thing i did was contact red sea, waiting for the reply. Just thought id post here to see if anyone has had similar issues and the outcome. Thanks for the welcoming, looking forward to being a part of Reef2Reef.

Yes, there was a defect with several 750XXLs that involved silicon failing on that lower seam. Red Sea extended their warranty as a response, modified the design to make it stronger, and should have a replacement tank for you. That is the only resolution that you should accept.

I had the same issue with a 625XXL sump. They took care of me right away and I was out of the warrantee period. They don't like to see this stuff. I suspect they will take care of you. Let us know.
