RedSea G2 something (50 gallon) chip

[itchyeyelogist]

I managed to snag a Red Sea G2 something yesterday for free off Facebook marketplace. Unfortunately while we were carrying the tank the woman helping me ran out of strength and ended up putting it down resulting in a chipped corner. It is currently sitting outside with 1/3 water to keep some snails and the live rock going. (I'm a beginner)

Is this tank salvageable? Do I trash it? Can I fix it or seal it? Any help is appreciated.

Personally, I wouldn't trust it, but that is just me

Resell as a reptile tank, not worth the risk/hassle IMO ,sorry

I wouldn't trust a brand new RS tank much less one with corner damage.

My bar for a sketchy tanks is quite high, and I see that as potentially just superficial damage, but compound that with Red Sea's track record, and I personally wouldn't trust this tank either. And I've filled tanks I've found on the side of the road

Let's see if @UncommonSense has any fixes, or thinks this is best for reptiles now

I think you should do some research on how much it would cost if all those gallons went on your floor and you weren’t aware for at least 8 hours. Then compare that $ amount to the $ amount you paid for the tank.

It’s a bummer but life happens. Maybe the tank being dropped now saved you from the likely eventual failure of the Red Sea tank in the future.
