Tank integrity question

[fishman1218]

I was tank shopping today(used) and came across a 150. I was wondering if this particular tank should be left alone, it's been sitting dry in a garage for about 4yrs, and the back side of the bottom trim ring is broken, the silicone appears fine, not cracked or rolled, I didn't look at it very long though.

old silicone can be bad. especially if left empty for long periods of time. thats not to say this one is bad, but i would deff take a closer look.

also, the trim rings are not for looks. they do serve a purpose, so that could also be a red flag.

sorry.

Depending on the price you could have it resealed but I would probably wait for a newer tank to pop up.

Why would you want a nano anyways? jk
