NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo :( :( :( :( :( :(

I got up this morning to find that my tank has a 2" crack in the front pane of glass of my 180 gallon :( It cracked in the lower left of the front pane. I put so much work into this tank and i finally got rid of an extremely aggressive strain of fin rot that i had for a year and it cracks...Im so depressed right now..

Is there anything i can do besides removing the front pane of glass and replacing it? i doubt i could replace the glass without screwing it up somehow... Will the crack continue to spread?
 
more than likely it is going to spread, i would have drained the tank when i found it, you may have a mess on your hands if you dont. your prolly going to have to replace the whole pane to remidy the problem... sorry :(
 
sorry to hear your tank cracked.If I where you I would drain it asap you don't want to know what 180g looks like on your floor trust me it realy sucks.
 
Heres the crack:

And my empty tank :(

So there is no way to repair it without replacing the pane?
 
I always feel bad for someone when i hear this.. i can only amagine what your going through but i feel your pain.. :(
