Anyone Had This Problem

[poohbear1]

Ok I found a tank I like. Its the Fluval Venezia 190 Corner Aquarium.
Buttttttt Ive seen some people say that these tanks leak. From what Ive heard the seal at holding the lid in place leaks condensation which in turn damages the cabinet so the tank isn't level which puts pressure on the bow front.
Has anyone had this problem and does the company have this problem sorted yet.
Thanks for any help

Had the problem on my Roma, condensation started leaking after a few months, wasnt major just a few drops every hour or so, it was unsightly more than damaging, although had it been left would probably have gotten worse.

I contacted Hagen directly and after a bit of emaling back and forwards they agreed to replace the tank. However they did want the original tank back to check, so changing tanks over was a bit of a pain.

They basically dont use enough silicone around the top of the tank between the glass and the black surround, so if you buy one, just use your own silicone around the top to ensure the problem (hopefully) doesnt arise.

I have had my Fluval 190 for 3 months now and not had a problem with it.
