Hello all, this is my first post so mods please place in correct spot if this is not. I noticed a crack in which I just bought today in my 75 gallon tank. I took some photos with my macro lens and 35mm I put krazy glue on it after I had taken the photos and I think these types of cracks happen more so then not and THINK I should be ok with the tank holding water and not completely blowing up. Posting for others opinions as I am just getting into saltwater life =) Thank you all in advance.

No problem. Worst case i would use the tank as salvage because i bought it used and the guy was awesome. Gave me a great price and hooked me up.
 
Yes this i think would be the ultimate test but i have to wait for a warm day. Figured see what may happen. I think I've seen a few of my friends with similar cracks in their tanks before.
 
Wouldn't bother me, not sure I have any tanks that don't have a chip like that
At first i was like ****! But then relaxed and used some superglue to maybe help whatever tiny cracks there might be.
 
Should be ok, but doubt if super glue does and good. The glass is being held together by the silicone between the panes. Looks like the crack started and returned to the same outer edge, if it had continued into the tank it would be a no go.
 
Thank you for your input! Wanted to take good pictures for everyone. Glad i can still use it as i would be totally disappointed if i couldn't.
