The fibre glass part is 100% reef safe, the resin that you use to bind it may not be, epoxyresins are generally preffered because they do not break down in UV light like Polyester.

You will not have any problem with fiberglass tanks. After they cure it is inert. I have been using them for a year or so. I know other growers that have used them for many years. Just make sure that if they are used they didn't have anything in them to harm corals. Did they have fish and treat with copper etc.
