Crack in Tank?

I am not a structural engineer, but I would say it's not worth the risk of having 90 gallons of water, rock, sand and fish flooding your house. Generally the pressure will find a weak link and that's where bad things happen. My vote is no, it is not safe.

DEFINITELY not . . . I watched a tank basically explode today at the LFS becuase it developed a small crack.
Not fun . . . if you bought it new then return it and get a new one.

LOL!!! The ducktape approach is an interesting one but I would recommend getting a new tank. I had a 135 gallon pop in my bedroom when i lived at home and it wasnt pretty. ruined the carpet, walls, my mom beat the S%&$!!!! out of me. I dont recommend taking the chance.
