Hello...
Man, sorry, but there's nothing that will hold that crack together. It will open up like an old zipper once you start filling it.
Not sure of the cost for a piece of glass...it will depend on the size of course. 3/4" is going to be pricey.
Sorry man, good luck...

Does the tank have a frame around it ? If it does not then you really wouldnt need to use 3/4 glass you could use a thinner glass as long as the tank would be fully supported along the bottom. (placed on a flat level surface with some foam underneath)
No it doesn't have a frame. The crappy part is when I got the tank I took it apart to put it n the room then resealed it
That's almost 1500 pounds of water on that glass, and there's only that glass between you and that much water in your house... I would just sell it to a reptile guy and buy a new (and bigger! 
) tank. Sorry bro.
