well i tried to contact the guy i got it from but there was no reply here or by phone so he obviously doesnt back up his work....i bought this tank about 6 months ago and it started to split its seam so talked with jason at CFI and he was awsome and very helpful =P. So i decided to fix it myself took a few pictures of the process.
here is before it was fixed doesnt look too bad but was leaking water...
took a dremel with a 1/8" round carbide bit and dremeled it all out all the way through the panel 1/16" out of each panel.
left side after fixing it its decent but got some bubbles in it....still have to sand it down and polish it doing that tomorrow when lowes is open still need to get the bits for it...
found on the right side it was just barely starting to do the exact same thing so i figured idd catch it now and fix it along with the left...
Doesnt leak water anymore!! =P and all corals and fish looking perfect...no effect at all on them with doing this all i can say was atleast it wasnt down on the bottom...ill be posting the finished product pics tomorrow when i get it done..hopefully itll come out pretty decent..
