    Cool.
    A few months back I probably wouldn't have even cared since it's on top and not where the water is but now I am a little paranoid about little cracks and their potential to expand into big cracks.

    I would just patch it. Ross & Eve's sump had several cracks like that and was leaking at 1 seam. I patched that for them and as far as I know it's still holding.

    Yes very true.
    Tomorrow's schedule:
    bring sump to Ace to have it fixed in the morning
    then in the afternoon head over to Alton's to borrow his 100g tub and pump

    Looks like a easy a fix. Crack was just in the bracing, which Ace should be able to fix no probs.

    almost. There's a tiny one on the side right below the bracing. That's teh one I was worried about would get longer once there was water added.
    Yes, hopefully it will be all glued for good tomorrow.
