Bubbles in silicone seals!!

[tropicalryan]

Okay so as the title suggests I have found bubbles in the silicone seals on my 50 gallon aquarium. A little background so as to better see if my situation is dire, I bought this tank 2 years ago from a friend who had it running for 3-5 years, both myself and him have had no issues with the tank. Last time I was doing a water change I noticed the bubbles in the seals. I have no idea if they have been there since the tank's construction, if they're years old, or fairly recent, as this was the first time I even looked to inspect the seals. However, the seals show no sign of degradation (pictures below). So my concern is should I avert a disaster and move my fish or have these probably been there for a while and need no real concern, maybe just monitoring. Any input will help

Those bubbles were there when the tank was made. No worry; just monitor if you wish.

that's what I was hoping to hear, if I may ask, what makes you believe they were there since the tanks construction?
