We emptied it to change the water and came back to see this damage! It’s like the acrylic has puckered and split. The edges are sharp. What would cause this?! I will get on to the supplier tomorrow but would be very grateful for any thoughts as to how this happened. Is it a manufacturing flaw? Thank you in advance.
