I'm curious if anyone with a 2nd generation 24 nuvo has had it

Crack on them ? I have one still in the box serial# 468. I understand the 2nd gens are 7mm

But Im still nervous of setting it up.

thanks

I have a second gen. I can confirm it is 7mm. My serial number ends with 647.

 

It hasn't cracked and I have had it set up for a year. It did pop a silicone seam over the winter, but that was my own damn fault, I don't think it was a manufacturer defect. I had wedged my gyre cord in between the glass and my drop-in screen top. The seam that popped was right next to where I had wedged the cord. I stripped the silicone out and resealed it. It has held ever since.

 

If you do set up the tank my recommendation is to not place it on that plastic pedestal that it comes with. I bought some black yoga mat and set the tank on that.

I need to hear more about these new 2nd gen tanks!! Keep up the good news. I'm loving onto my condo next month and a nuvo 24 is coming with me. *fingers crossed*

Well bad news... A couple months back I sold my 2nd gen Nuvo24 to RIP Sebastian here on N-R. Within a month of him moving it and setting it up at his place, it cracked.
