Center brace broke on 55gal...am i doomed?!

Did water changes today, seemed kinda weird cause this is the first time my water evaporated so fast causing one of my fluvals that has the intake located below the surface to stop running.

Took my canopy off, and notice that my center brace on the 55 came apart. So there is no longer a brace holding the center walls of the 55 togeather.

Causing the front and rear glass to be REALLY weak, and when i tap you can see the glass bounce around.

Freaks me out cause i dont want 55gal of water on the floor, and all my fish to die...

Im thinking about going out buying another 55gal, this time the brace will be built in with the plastic frame. Unlike the old school sillicone a thick pice of glass inplace.

And i was wondering...am i doomed? Do i even need that piece? Will i be seeing a sudden crash and 55gal of water and fish on my floor?

Thanks

Thank god my friend has a spare 125gal to put all these fish in =].
