  • #1
I just got this tank a couple days ago it’s been with water for about 24 hours now , still no problems but I just noticed these little bubbles (not the ones in the sand ...) are they something I should worry about ? The tank is made of acrylic and is 25.5x10x19 , I can’t tell if the bubbles are in the acrylic or just a reflection , please help

What isn’t? The acrylic or the black pice?

I don’t think I can put it behind them bc the bubbles seem to be inside the acrylic


These little bubbles

I told him Here’s your sign! Lol
He said that’s just a reaction of the acrylic to something. He left cause I laughed at him. Anyway he says it’s fine and you don’t have a thing to worry about. I’ll find out later what he said.

Ok. He said it’s the way the edges were prepared for bonding.
But he has a question. In the first? pic he sees a needle?
Sorry, second picture.

Yeah it was just a reflection not a needle lol but I have another question I added a picture is this a problem? Bc it doesn’t look safe lol you can see there not perfectly aligned, only in that top corner though and I Think I see some separation right before the corner where it’s not aligned , will this be a issue or future issue that could cause some problems

Yes. It’s really a totally horrible job. I wanted to tell you, so I’m glad you posted!, hubby looked at the “bubbles” with his glasses. He says that’s crazing due to poor alignment. It will spread and eventually fail. I’m sorry, I didn’t know he didn’t have his glasses on. No wonder he couldn’t find the right bubbles! I’d definitely take it back. I’m sorry. You can slap me.
