i have a 15 gallon eclipse that i just bought used from a freind it has a small 1-1/2 inch crack twards the top it does not go all the way through i marked it with a dry erase marker to keep track and see if it gets any bigger. i was wondering if i should be worried about this or not.
 
I guess you should only be worried if you dont want water all over your floor.

:lol::lol::lol:
There are a couple options, neither of them good.

The crack could stay unchanged if tank not moved though unlikely.
Based on that assumption, could add some silicone and hope for best.

The other direction is to get a very very small diamond drill (as in tiny) and with ZERO pressure, drill a hole just beyond the crack keeping the drill bit lubricated with water and then fill it with cement when all dry.
 
that sucks, i got scare today when i peice of liverock smashed right into the glass of my 55, i was like oh snap
