DIY frame repair

Found a 210 gallon that I plan to use in the near future. The top brace is cracked in 2 places. With the advice of forum members I decided to try to find a replacement. I went to my lfs to find out they have the exact same tank that cracked at the cross braces and they told me they couldnt find one. I came up with my own solution last night. I think it's way stronger than the stock one and also came out looking good before and after painting.
