Long story short. My new tank came a week ago. Two days later there was a 22" crack in the back panel. I flipped out, called the carrier, the company I ordered from, etc etc. I was told it happened in shipping and I needed to file a claim, but I already signed for it. I started getting a few quotes trying to replace the panel and they have ranged from $1200-$2000 believe it or not because of the labor involved. The last guy that came went over the whole tank and found the bottom like this (pics). I never even noticed it. I pad $2600 for this. This clear defect more then likely would have a cause a stress fracture in the glass, correct?
