It doesn’t look like any photos were uploaded!

Chips can be tricky, as there are countless permutations… photos will be best-bet to diagnose it!

Looks a little gnarly, but I don't think it will effect seam or side integrity.

ok thanks, the complete chip is about an inch long and the little crack is liek 2 cm

Is that a crack going up from the impact point?

It would probably hold, but i wouldnt run it myself.

I will never tell anyone something like that will be fine, but I have worse ones than that and they are fine, so far.

I didn’t see that crack, scratch what I said above.

Ouch!

That potential crack does appear to just be a scratch, but the chip is definitely sizable!

— This looks like it’s on a vertical seam, in a corner of a long vertical pane?

— does any part of that chip radiate in towards the inside of the tank? (It’s tough to tell from these photos!)
