I ordered a Waterbox 230 Pro back in May from TriQuatics. It was a long wait but my tank finally arrived Friday afternoon and to my dismay I found that the base of the sump is chipped. I'm a bit worried because I did sign for the delivery and the freight release form they have you sign makes it sound like they may not cover damage after you've signed for the delivery. I even made the delivery driver wait (which he wasn't happy about) while I unscrewed the box that the aquarium was shipped in. I did a quick visual inspection of the contents and saw no damage.

It wasn't until I had a friend come over to help me remove the sump later that night that i noticed glass fragments in the bottom of the display tank that the sump was sitting in. Upon inspecting the sump i found this chip right at the bottom of the sump. Sick to my stomach over this...I've waited so long and have so much invested in this setup. I really hope Waterbox comes through with a replacement for me. I've left a message with Waterbox support but so far haven't been able to get them on the phone. Anyone have experience with Waterbox customer service? Besides calling their 800 number is there another way to get a hold of them?

I received my 130.4 last week and had exactly the same problem. Sum chip looked exactly the same in the same place. Contacted WB and they shipped me a new on the next day, it is scheduled to arrive Wednesday. I can't say enough about WB products and customer service. They are both fantastic. Can't wiat to get the system up and running. Have been curing 100# of live rock for a month and have a couple of fish in QT in anticipation of having tank ready for initial livestock in a month.

Good luck with your sump.

Mine was chipped and they sent me a new one. Arrived broken and sent another one. No questions asked. Fantastic service. Send them an email. They’re much better at responding. You’ll love your 230.6. We love ours. We ordered in May as well and it’s so worth the wait!!!! They’ll take care of you I’m certain of that

That was the chip on our first one. They were awesome to deal with just be patient which I know sucks but they’ll figure how to make it right by you.
