Help with this seam.

[Stormyscapes]

I'm new to the hobby and picked up this 125g used tank a few days ago. The gentleman I bought it from still had water in it until the morning I went and picked it up. Now that I have been able to look it over, I've noticed areas in the seams where he must have hit the silicone with the algae scrapper a little too hard and I don't know enough about tanks to gauge if it needs to be all stripped out and redone. The edges roll back on almost all the seams but stop at a certain point. I know you can't use new silicone with old but I don't trust my skills at redoing the seams and my nearest aquarium store is Petco so I don't exactly have a LFS to ask. Is it still OK to use or should I just start crying and finding a way to get it out of my house?

Waiting to see what people say on this. I have done the same thing to my silicone, and nothing has happened - but I have no idea how worried I should be.

Looks like it just got nipped by a razor during a cleaning. The most important part is where the 2 pieces of glass meet and that part still seems to be in great shape so you should be fine to run it

Yes the seam between the glass seems intact and fine. Check whole tank though.

Did you end up setting this up? Just found myself in this predicament as well lol. I’m thinking as long as the seem between the glass is good there shouldn’t be any issues. Here’s mine

As long as the silicone between the panes is good, you should be fine. My tank has nips in the silicone as well.
Best of luck!
