Scratch/Crack- Should I be worried?

[Manu8__too]

After looking at my 20G long this morning, I noticed a small 1" scratch/crack along the bottom left of the tank. If I run my finger along it, I feel it. Because this is an office tank, I'm a bit paranoid of what could happen. Thoughts on this? Will it eventually burst, or is this a normal issue?

Can u feel it on the inside? Plus a 20g long isn't too expensive to replace I assume.

Is this a crack or silicon thread ?

It looks like a crack to me, I'd replace the tank.

In my office I wouldn't take any chances

After scratching it a bit with my finger, most of it is no longer visible. This leads me to think it's probably a scratch. If it were indeed a crack, my guess it that you would still clearly see it. In hindsight, it has probably been like this for a while.

If it scratched off, it was most likely silicone.
