I have a 10 gallon tank that was a nano reef and is now serving as my qt tank for the time being. I have just discovered a small crack in the middle of the back where the lightis mounted on. It is not cracked all the way through nor is it a large crack. Should I break it down ASAP and get a new one or will this one be fine? Thanks guys

Is it a scratch or the glass is completely cracked? showing a picture is better.
if it is cracked, better to be safe, fix it or get a new one.

I don’t think it’s a scratch I don’t know how it would have been scratched like that

10 gallons won't be a lot of pressure on the crack, but i would replace it sooner than later. You dont want it to break all the way through when you have a fish in there
