    Just housing reptiles? You can pick up aquarium sealer or silicone at any pet store or wal-mart. Just make sure you let it dry first and properly air out and you'll be all set.

    How much is the sealer? A new 10g cost around $13 at petsmart and I believe petco is having a $1 a gallon sale on tanks.

    If you decide to replace the tank, go for one with the sliding lids. With the sealant, make sure you've let it air out properly, the fumes are no good for reptiles!

    Re: cracked tank :( anyy help ?

    You can pick up a new 10 gallon tank at Walmart for under $10... Doesn't seem worth it to try to repair something like that IMO...
