System :waterbox 35.2 AIO

I cannot see any depth, and cannot feel both at both side generally.

When I use my fingernail, maybe I could feel super duper tiny difference at inside.(not even noticable)

Just worry if this can be develop as crack ? Or
Is this just simple scratch.
I marked as marker and will see if it spreads, but for now I just want to know is it serious or not.

Also I can see little disconnected 0.5mm (maybe 1/20inch) line, next to the main line
Is that mean it's closer to scratch ? uranium


Thank you everyone and have a wonderful weekend-!

Looks like a scratch. If you can feel it on the inside, for heavens sake do not tap on the area on the outside. Cutting glass is done by making a scratch on one side and tapping or applying pressure from the other side to start the glass breaking along the scratch.

Looks ok as a scratch, but be careful in that area!

I think it's a crack. You can see the light reflecting differently.

Do you have sand and a magnet algae scraper?

Do you clean your glass with a metal scraper?

So every tank with a scratch is doomed?

Try to shine a flashlight while looking at a downward or upward angle. Try to see if there's depth to it. I use metal scrapers and mag floats that I've dropped plenty of times. I've never gotten a scratch like that.

Hard to tell, does it go all the way to the edge?
