So I have this friend who wants to buy a 75 gal and the guy selling it said there is a crack on the bottom, near the silicone seam. I have not personally seen it, but he said it was not large and it is "stable". I thought it was risky, but what do you think? Is the bottom strong enough to support the weight?

After he buys the stable tank with the crack in the bottom tell him to give me a call I have a bridge I bought a few years ago that I want to sell, its in good condition light wear and tear I call it the Brooklyn.

I have a crack on my bottom too. Don't you?
ohhhhh....we were talking about aquariums??? sorry
Seriously though, I wouldn't risk it. It's not worth it.
I have a crack at the bottom of my tank but it is acrylic. I sealed it with another piece of acrylic. I am not 100 percent sure but personally wouldn't take my chance with a crack in bottom of glass. I have always heard that the bottom of glass tanks are the strength and I crack definitely compromises that strength.
