Small crack on tank return or keep?

[Swiftwater]

I just noticed a small crack on the back of my new 20 gallon long, its above the water line and not near the silicone corners. I can not feel the crack on the outside of the tank

Will this crack get worse until it bursts?, should I return it or keep it?

If you can return it, do that. I have no advice on what to do if not; it may be fine or it may leak or break.

return it-period!But-good luck b/c they may say you did it.

 

[TheFishJunky]

and yes,the water pressure will make the crack spread and get worse

Don't take the risk of keeping it. It could be fine, but it could also spread. Take it back if you can.

I say keep it till it breaks,
then,
when you are done cleaning up the 20 gallons of water,
assessing the water damage,
mourning the loss of your pets,
and are done getting idiot slapped on the forehead by your
girlfriend/wife/boyfriend/husband/mother/father/teacher/preacher or whoever or all the above,
you can return it...
hopefully you remembered to keep the reciept...

You paid good money for a new tank. Thats what you should get. Period.
Return it
