Deep blue is weird, I wouldn't buy a tank from them again. Even their stands are horrible.+ don't forget that big waste of space that the call an overflow box.
Waste of time and money

Thanks for the advice man, and are you supplying the blue label? I gotta buy a new tank.
I wish I just bit the bullet and bought a 48 x 24 x 24 reef savvy. Now I'm gonna pay for it and be stuck with a classcages piece of sheit to fit my stand. Calling deep blue professional is like calling up your ex girl you cheated on. No number listed I sent them an email but they aren't gonna give two ducks. I'm the third owner of this tank even though it was mint.

Sorry about what happened with the tank..that small print part really stinks
IF you do go the route of replacing the pane, the glass that broke wouldn't have scratched the front glass as tempered glass isn't sharp around the edges, which is the point (no pun intended) of it. When my Forever (not!) storm door broke (was tempered), I went as far as to pick up some of the glass and gently squeezed it in my hand..no cuts.
..and that lady is very pretty, at least something got you smiling

That is good to know even though one of the pieces cut me after the whole ordeal to top it off. I looked quickly for scratches but I couldn't look at it any longer it just got me furious. The tank is spending the night outside in time out and I will examine it for scratches in the morning. If it isn't too bad I'm gonna bring it to a local glass shop and have them put on a new piece of glass. I am worried about the plastic trim on the bottom though they might not want to touch it.

Honestly I have had terrible luck in this hobby in the past year. First my purple tang got sucked to the side of my mp40 while he was picking algae off the glass right next to it with its fins extended. Then my mystery wrasse and my clam killed each other and now this.

Don't think that will get you far...sorry. Here was the rest of the fine print..

Yea I read all of that before I drilled that's why I was so nervous to trust them and it was for a good reason. When it comes to customer service and quality you get what you pay for. Royal Is the owner of deep blue and I expect them to not care at all.

Was there a sticker on the back glass?
- Location

There sure was but there were also stickers on the sides and I knew for sure that those were tempered so that's why I just didn't think much of the sticker on the back. bc the chart on their website and multiple threads I have seen the same tank has been drilled. On top of all of that I used both 3d glasses and polarized sunglasses and I didn't see any black lines in it.

Also the stickers on the side were round and in the corners, and the one on the back was a different sticker. like midtown an already said it was on crooked and upside down it looked like it wasn't meant to be there.
