Should I start shopping for a new tank???

If only you lived closer I would invite you over to look at it and it give me a estimate lol I spotted another seam with the same issue towards the back of the tank, so It’s sounds like a real head scratcher to fix myself Saving money over buying a tank is tempting but not for my first time job, I would kick myself ;Blackeyeif there was a failure in the future due to my poor work lol

Im 2 hours from O'hare airport if you wanted to grab sealant and the tank, I'd be happy to fix for you. I dont charge.

Here’s another pic to confirm

I'm sure it was covered, but the bubbles could have been there all this time, it's how the glass is pulling away from the front to back where the caulk is not touching is cause for concern.

I mightve missed this but what is the tank size/manufacturer?

And you all have my running over to inspect my tank now

got bubbles in the seam? Is this something I should be worried about? don’t want a water disaster, is it time for a upgrade?

Hey Chayo. Why don't you get some angle iron/aluminum, silicone it to all four corners and use the metal shipping strapping and secure it around the tank. I will hold until you can figure this out. Heck it may never fail this way but won't be pretty.
