Exclamation My sump cracked!

I was putting in a baffle to stop skimmer bubbles from entering the tank...all was well until around 1PM today when it cracked and started leaking! It must have had a hairline crack to begin with (used Oceanic #2 sump) and Finally gave way when I put a little pressure on it. I am in the process of building another one from a 40g acrylic tank I picked up at King Eds at 6PM.
I have two streams running in the tank and moved up my heater...I should be OK untill the silicon sets tomorrow PM. Shouldnt I? Ive never had to run my tank w/o a sump filter, skimmer. Just wanting to make sure that the 150 will be good until tomorrow eve. without!
