Leaking aquarium for anyone interested - possible vivarium/terrarium?

    My goldfish tank started to leak two nights ago, managed to drain most of the water into a big plastic storage tub and picked up a new 100l tank from WIZE yesterday evening which I've spent the evening getting clean and ready to move the goldfish back into tomorrow night.

    The reason the tank is leaking is that there's a small crack (about an inch long) in the bottom pane of glass so I reckon it's pretty unfixable as an aquarium. I'm guessing it could still be useful as a vivarium/terrarium though?

    It's a 60 litre tank, 60 cm x 35 cm x 30 cm. Pic of the same model here: 87094_elite_style_60_tropical_fish_tank_img.jpg

    There's a light in the cover but guessing it might need some work to make it escape proof for many small animals. Not much use to me as even if I sealed the leak with silicone, I'm pretty certain the weight of sixty litres of water would expand the crack, so, free for the first forum regular who wants it and has a use for it. :)
