Tank is a waterbox 110.4 I can get the whole set up for a great deal. Tank has a very small chip in back corner. No spider webbing coming from chip. Chip is so small you can barely see it.
Thoughts on it failing

I don’t like chips either but looks pretty superficial.
Trying to get other’s opinions
 
I would usually shy away from a tank with chipped glass. The pictures look like the chip is superficial; this could be okay, but it is always hard to tell without physically inspecting it instead of photographs.
 
Ive dealt with a 25 gallon set up similar to this, the same corner was chipped and went ahead and still used the tank. once no one is knocking into the tank or any unnecessary force or pressure you'll be fine. They also have glass repair kits that can help fill in the chipped corner when takin your time. The tank will be fine.
 
I don’t think the guy that has it even knew it was there. So small of chip I could probably sand it out

I wouldn't sand, may waken glass, with some experience id just try fill it in as best as you can, if no leaks on the tank you'll be good. :)
