I just had all the same issues on my 110 Clear for Life Tank.... I couldnt believe how thin the acrylic was. The bow was so unsightly and unnerving I never even put fish or hardscape in it. Even after reaching out for reassurance its was still a worry some tank for inside use.

One test fill from me and it was on to the next buyer. Large garage grow out tank which he had 2 of already.
Raka, that's too sad . . .

I was given the impression that all their standard tanks are just fine, and I'm the culprit who ordered something bad.

I was under the same impression as this was $1100 new. I was blown away how much the tank bowed, to the point the top was no longer flat as well. I was just happy to find someone who was well aware what he was getting.

Anyone remember LeeMar? I had an acrylic LeeMar 125g (really 112g) 60"x18"x24" about 3/8" thick panels for 13 years (purchased in 1998). About 7 of those years the left side was lower by 2" because I didn't bother shimming it in my new house. Point being, it lasted quite a while with no crazing in the middle. You can see the 2 flower patterns where it started to separate from the back panel. It was bowing, but I never measured by how much.
