Looking at a tank locally to me with a crack in the back sump wall. Descriptions are in the pictures from the seller.
My concerns are the crack obviously, can it be re done to do a cleaner job? Structural integrity concern’s me.

Thanks

NOt a problem but i wouldnt be paying anywhere near that figure. You could very easily remove that pane and put a new acrylic pane in there. As the seller said if pressure both side it wont/shouldnt blow out.. get it cheapere and replace the pane

A new acrylic panel from water box? Or ?
 
no just measure it up and go to any lazer cutter sign shop..use 5mm black and you will be sweet..he will even cut holes for the returns and put a weir in for you.
 
with the weir get him to cut a small piece that will cover it and overlap a bit. then you can buy 2 nylon bolts and nuts and make the weir adjustable to set your water height.
