Man, I can't count the tanks I have repaired and that are still in use with absolutley no problems what so ever. Its not that freaking hard! You just have to take you time and do it right the first time.
Even though its only a 10 gallon like you said its 85 bucks verses maybe 15 and some of your time.
But I like Reefguru's answer better, "natures way of telling you to get a bigger tank"

I was always taught to respect my elders, but it keeps getting harder to find one.
Every morning is the dawn of a new error.
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
