Yesterday I found this 20 gallon while working but I assholed by chipping the corner right town to the seal.. it’s officially not usable as an aquarium imo but can it at least be used as a paludarium? The chip is roughly 10inches up
Sure, as a terrarium. It probably could still be used as a shallow paludarium but personally i would cut the glass below the damaged part so there’s no chance for the crack to spread. Using it as an aquarium would be risky. That glass panel could be a slight bump away frow shattering.

As long as you dont fill the water up to the crack, it should be fine, so it would still work as a paludarium, tho i would approach with caution as with any broken thing.

Leak test it to find out
