i didnt even notice until right now. i cant feel it on either side and i havnt filled the water all the way so i dont know if this will be a problem. its where two glass panes meet.

since i cant feel it and it is on the inside...is it a problem? what should i do?


should i take pics? if i do...ill do it tomorrow its 3 30am
 
Take pics when you can, is it just a small chip? What size tank is it?
 
Tank size and location of chip on edge would help, as well as picture. I have seen many tanks with small edge chips that haven't presented problems.If it's a new tank you could always return it. If its a old tank you could silicone plastic corner guards like those used in homes to protect wall edges to the exterior corner.
 
Do you mean chipped inside the tank or inside the glass itself. Which I have a tank that has a chip inside the glass I guess you would call because it doesn't look like a crack it looks like a chip that hasn't come off and you can't feel anything. If its like this my tanks had it for like 5 yrs since I moved to this house.

LOU mine looks exaclty like that.

and i cant feel anything either.

its hard ot get pics with this camera. either there is way too much lighting or not enough. i am going to try again.


its a 125 btw
 
Most chips are nothing to worry about.Theres a few chips in the 125g tanks in my fishroom and I dont even notice them
 
same i have a 150 gl with a couple chips on the corners never had a water issue and i dont notice them unless someone points them out.
