Man that is a good deal since everything is basically new and the tank itself IS new!

It sure was a pretty tank :)

[johncody]

yeah prices are set to be fair for buyer and seller, but buyer must understand that the tank and lighting system are in the upper class items. not cheap to buy so not too cheap to sell but you as the buyer will be getting top quality items.
Cheers JohnCody

[johncody]

OK so tomorrow i might be doing a parting out sale. just waiting on word from a fellow that wanted whole system. i have written names down that wanted single items and will be getting back to you when i hear from him . Thanks again to those that got my fish and other live stock,house is empty of fish tonight :( been staring at 80 lbs of rock in my sump. Worst part about it ..... I enjoyed it, lol i need help.

Cheers JohnCody

[johncody]

Hey Everyone I just bought this system and just got it all in order it was day 3 of the fill up process I had put the salt in last night since the temp was warm and wouldnt you know it started leaking out of the bottom trim I was hoping it was just a bit of spillover from me just finishing adding the LS but to my dismay the tanks trim was leaking faster and faster needless to say I have 4 rubbermaids 2 styrofoam coolers, 4 salt buckets and any other container I could find full of SW. What should I do? I hadnt even got a rock inside it what a PAIN

[Leah]

Wow, I think I would be on the phone asap. That bites. Just talking about what you
would do if you had a leaky tank yesterday. Tank should have a warranty on it. I
would talk to Johncody he may have to go to bat for you. I am sure he is a good guy
and would not stick you with a leaky tank, pretty sure the tank was new was it not????
What a disapointment. I feel for you on this one. Good-luck keep us posted.

[Whatigot]

oh MAN....
sorry to hear this.
A beautiful brand new tank like that would have a warranty.
If not, I would imagine you could find someone (on this board or at one of the local lfs) to reseal it for you for not a whole lot of money.
Resealing a tank is not too bad a jopb for someone with the know-how.
Hopefully this works out for you.

[Black Phantom]

Jeez
I wouldn't even want to think about my big tank leaking. :neutral: Can you see where it's coming from. You might be able to resilicone that area.
The down side would be to drain it and return for warranty. BTW - don't strap the tank down when you are transporting it. This will put a lot of pressure in one specific spot on the aquarium and they are not designed for that. This may be why it's leaking. Pad the sides so it wont slide and have a very level base under it. Then drive carefully.

[24storm]

What happened to the first tank that John had i understand it broke but where? Was it a seam or a crack or the same thing that is occuring now with this one?

Keith

[Mrfish55]

Are you using the same stand? 2 leaky tanks on the same stand sounds like the stand may be the guilty party, hope it is not much of a hassle to straighten out, leaks in any tank are a PITA (x10 in a large tank) hope all works out for you.
