Reverb issue on JSX 212

I have a JSX 212, and like a total doofus never realized that the whole time I have owned it the reverb tank was disconnected from the amp (shows how much time I have played it). When I hooked it back up and tried to adjust the reverb, all the reverb knob did was cut out the sound on the amp (the higher the reverb was turned, the less volume the amp had).

I was told that the reverb tank on this was bad, and that simply swapping in a new tank would fix it. I have pulled the tank and it is one made by Accutronics.

Before I go ahead and send off for a new one, I just want to be sure that this is indeed the problem, or is it something entirely else such as a bad pre-amp tube?

Thanks!
