I am getting ready to set up and was looking at the end of the tank to conceptualize the aquascape when I noticed this (see pic). There is no way I can safely set it up not to mention that it is a nasty visual defect to boot. I just sent Great Lakes an email. This is under warranty so I am hoping that they will replace it.

Thanks Ryan for giving me a hand today. I made ot out there and back in roughly 3 hours with the roads being nuts. Looks like they will be able to fix it. I am going to go ahead with getting the lights done while I am waiting.
