Cracked glass

Is this beyond repairable? Would you repair it and use?

It's hard to see in the picture
Is it just the clamshell chip, or are there branching cracks coming from it? If it's just the clamshell chip on the outside it will probably be fine. It might help to clean up the salt and try taking a new picture.

I would get a new tank just to be safe. Nothing worse than coming back to a flooded home and thousands and thousands of dollars of corals, fish and equipment dead

looks like a double chip out. one piece gone and the other in process. also 2 cracks . one from hole to edge. and the other finer, but still seems to be going edge to edge. Note: any crack will travel till its reached an edge. in Both directions. ALWAYS . ( my eval.) the chip outs, make me really nervous. Conclusion : very risky. NEW Tank. Do Not buy an all in one tank. PS: clean well , betting it gets worse. Good Luck

Im 95% gonna get a new tank. Just wanted some opinions here if this is salvagable.

I mean if you can get a scrap piece of glass and smear it full of silicone and sandwich the glass with it...it MIGHT hold for now
