Just wondering if anyone can help me out, I’m not sure if I have a crack or what it could be and if I should be worried or not I have no water leaking just not sure if it could turn into a big problem or if I’m just being a perfectionist check out the video and help me out! Thanks!

Hard to tell what I'm looking at on video. Is that line at the seam?
 
It kinda looks like failing silicone seam. But can't tell.

If it's a long bubble in the silicone, and the bubble is exposed to the water, I'd be concerned.

Can you take pics with full light?

Yes I will and it looks more to my like a scratch but the little bubble reaching out are a bit concerning to me

It’s not really much of a bubble more like a line almost as if they scratched it while sealing the tank during manufacturing

So is that fully "within" the bottom pane?

It doesn't look like a scratch to me. Looks like a crack.....

Seems to be on the inside of the bottom panel right in the middle of the glass piece

That's what's concerning to me. Cracks happen "inside" the glass. Scratches on the surface.
