Should I worry about the minor scratches on the bottom (outside surface) of the tank? They are visible but I can barely feel them by the touch of hand. Because it's framless, the whole bottom will sit on the stand instead of only the edges compare to a framed tank...so I guess that further makes the scratches not an issue?

It's a 20G that I bought in my LFS. I know the owner for quite a long time and he told me it's not an issue...is he right or he's just trying to sell me the tank?

Please advise...thanks

I don't think there is anything to worry about Steven and you won't see it once the tank is setup.

Enjoy the new tank,

Carlos

I try to keep the tank plain and simple but it never stays that way!
