Just got this used 125. Both of my tanks have been used before and I’ve had no issues including one being a reptile enclosure. After inspecting it in the daylight, it looks like it might be in too rough of shape to use for an aquarium (previously used for a bearded dragon). As you see, there are several cracks in the black trim which I’m not sure if I could just fill with epoxy or silicone? Also, the silicone on the inside is peeling a bit too. What do you all think?

I would not fill that with enough water to flood my entire house. The plastic is no longer taking stress off the joints.
 
I wouldn't take the chance on a tank that big.
