Need advice, should I be worried?

Should I be worried about this chip??

While it's probably been there for quite some time... I would not want to be the one that fills up that tank in my own home.

I agree 100%

+1. Tanks are relatively cheap. I would not use that one.

The way that chip is positioned it appears to be below the silicone. I wouldn't necessarily be too concerned about the glass breaking, but it creates a channel for the water to seep through and continuously leak. It might not be today, tomorrow, or next month, but eventually it looks like it could be a problem.

As everyone else has said, I wouldn't use it.

you can't take it out at all ?

Replace that glass. It will cost you much less than the damage of a spill. You have no water in, do the right thing. Enjoy the hobby, dont be paranoid with it...

 

[jeromeit]

Thanks for the suggestion guys, this will definitely be the last time I buy a tank used, damn waste of money.

 

[skene]

Sell it as a reptile tank.

I do not understand why you can't take that coin out of there
take a credit card and make a hook and get it out

The coin isn't the problem... It's the chip next to it.

 

[duromega]
