WOW, thats a steal. Make sure you fill it and wait for 3-5 days to see if it leaks. Sometimes cheaper is more expensive.

Cheaper isnt always better like Luna mentioned. I'd be wondering why they sold it so cheap. A reptile 180g is made differently then a 180g aquarium. Not as much support and thinner glass.

If its cracked, I wouldnt touch it IMO. 180g, thats 1500+lbs of pressure on that glass, no amount of silicone will hold a crack with that much pressure.

You also may have to look through a bunch of scratches if there was a very big reptile in there.

im actually gonna just put a whole new side on it, ill just have it cut to slide over it and silicone the crap out of it. the guy has it split in half with a piece of plexi, one side fish and one side lizard, holds water for 3-4 yrs like that i guess. but really for $50 and a little prep....cant really beat it, i can always resell it as reptile tank for twice what i paid, so....
