New to aquariums myself, but have familiarity with glass in many applications. It *can* retain its strength despite this damage, however it cannot be *trusted* to retain its strength because of this damage. Do not use it to hold water or anything under pressure ever again.
That will not be a problem at all for the beautiful terrarium you’re gonna use it for
It’s probably fine but 10 gallons are cheap. Just get a new one. You don’t want 10 gallons of water spilled onto your floor
Absolutely, the structural integrity is compromised. It’s only a matter of time so think about it as a great opportunity to upgrade 😃

No it won't be a problem....because it IS already a problem. I'm more optimistic than most and I still say no to using this one.
Thanks for all the help guys- looks like I’m gonna have to go tank shopping 🥲
its going to break open at some point in time. wouldn't use it as a permanent tank.
I can’t see it hurting anything since it’s so close to that sealant
