Jchavez Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Just wanted to put a feeler out there and see if anyone personally has ran into issues with Red Sea XXL625 model R42312. I have personally purchased a used set up and now curious about it. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandVib3s Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 I would just be scared if it's a 1st generation tank. There's ways to reseal it but honestly not worth it unless you get a killer deal. I personally resealed a 350 and was a headache but seems solid and has been running just fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have no idea what percentage ends up leaking, just that it does happen sometimes. (I own a 1st gen RSR750 and it has been fine for 4 yrs.) When the tanks leak it is because the stand fails and starts to bow in the middle. I would check the stand for bowing and make sure the tank is perfectly level on the stand. Also check the seams for any bubbles in the silicone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
