Emergency! Scratched or Cracked Glass?

[Michigan Reefer]

After spending two days building and glueing a rockscape together, I placed it in the tank to see the fit and look and with a little wiggling, I’ve scratched the bottom of the glass. It seems to be just surface, but still super worried it’ll crack and get worse. Any ideas to fix, repair, or seal the glass? Or am I completely doomed?

If I can fix it, I’m thinking of adding a plastic mat or something down before sand and rock to redistribute the weight better? Any other ideas? Thank you

Cover it with sand and you'll never see it again.
No worries at all.

I think also it’s not a huge deal, but still any measures it doesn’t crack or spread first before sand? Good old fashioned duct tape first? Lol

Go buy a sheet of 1/8 plexy and place it in the bottom. It’s good peace of mind while scaping and in the future should any rocks collapse.

Good idea thanks.

A surface scratch is of no concern and wouldn't spread. A crack would require a new tank or panel replacement.

Plexi will get more sand under it. Unless rtv'd down.
