Do you guys think it's worth it and repairable? Said the moving company bumped a bulkhead and cracked it. Maybe GC can get me a panel cheap.

How do you fix a cracked glass tank? You would have to replace the whole panel.... not a project I would want to deal with... or risk.

Agreed. You would have to take it all apart to get the correct seal just for the one panel. No thanks.

Talked to Rick and Kevan about it and b/c it has a PVC bottom you have to use a certain tecnique to seal it so Im passing

If it were glass bottom, then I might consider fixing it. I successfully replaced then end panel on a 225 a few years back. it wasnt too hard work. But as others have said, I would be concerend about bonding the silicone to the PVC bottom.

New panel from GC eas only going to cost like $200-300 and thought it might be worth it but after talking with a few people the PVC bottom was a concern so I decided against it.
