chip on corner of tank, would you replace pane?

[guarda]

20 gallon square tank, 17x17x17 i believe. Transporting it home in the back trunk and came to a hard stop and it tapped a piece of metal on a back brace of the back seat in the trunk and chipped. I know it's kinda hard to see with the white corner brace that i filled with silicone and capped the corner with (for aesthetic purposes) but would you replace the front glass on this tank? I filled the tank halfway so far and no leaks. If I poked a needle through the inside corner of the tank, I don't think i'd have to go far to get to air. What would my options be?

Thanks so much for looking.

I would replace it entirely. It looks like it could give way any time. Sorry. :(

I wouldn't trust it, since it's at the bottom of the tank. That SUCKS!! I'm sorry this happened to you. :(

Yeah, this basically killed my weekend. I was thinking that maybe siliconing a cube of glass on the inside corner as a kind of brace might do it but I guess I'm going to order a new pane.

When I tried to drill my 90 and found out the hard way that it was tempered glass, we found it would be cheaper to replace the bottom than to get a new tank, so that's what we did. Easier than you'd expect.
