I found that my powerhead magnet scratched my display glass.

75 gallon. Tons of livestock.

Will the scratch turn into a crack?

Hey, I've just scratched mine too with rock! I'm feeling really worried that my tank will explode, is there a way to strengthen the scratches somehow?

Aw man that's a bummer! :anxious-face-with-sweat: Nothing more will happen; you just have to look at it all the time which hurts more than your back would from changing your floors :crying-face:

Chill! :)

Unless you somehow have managed to cut halfway through your glass with a grain of sand (unlikely!) nothing will happen! :) It's cosmetic, it's annoying - but you'll be just fine!

We all have scratches in our glass unless the tank is mint and just out of the box. The first one hurts the most. :face-with-head-bandage:
