Hi,
I bought a used 125 gallon and was told to reseal it by the guy I bought it from. I got into the process and discovered the front glass seems separated from the side glass on the left side. I though maybe I would have to rebuild the tank or at least remove the front glass and reattach it. As I got further into it I discovered that the glass is pretty badly chipped along the top on that side piece. This makes me nervous trying to remove the frame or rim from the glass on top in that I could easily break the glass.

In the pictures....you can see that I am applying a bit of pressure in the second one to show the separation.

Not being able to see the chips, from your pic, seems like you'd be ok removing the panel and clean it up.
