hey guys i just bought a 200g fish tank! for a great price! but anyways i got the tank home and my older brother accedntly put to much pressure on the one side causein the fish tank to crack on the bottom. is there anyway way i can repair it?

i was guessing if i can buy a piece of plywood and water proof it and glue it on the bottom silicon i mean.
 
I'd go with 1/4 inch acrylic, cut to size, silicone the underside, press out air, then silicone the corners. Get it cut as close to the exact size as possible, but not to close that you have to force it in and cause more damage. The bottom is just cracked right, not broken?
 
glass or acrylic?

it is just cracked. :(
 
a decent picture of the damage would help.

ide get a piece of glass cut large enough to totally cover the damage and silicone it in place with aquarium safe silicone.
