I bought a 70 gallon tank from a buddy of mine after a seam separated in his apartment. I scraped the silicone on the inside, and re-sealed the tank. Unfortunately, my repair job only lasted about 2 years- luckily it was in my garage. I think if I had totally stripped the tank, separated the pieces, and made a wooden bracket to hold the glass pieces while the silicone hardened, it would have been fine. Let me know if you're interested in trying, or if you'd like it for a reptile tank. The tank comes with a basic wooden stand, no canopy. $30
