  • really really messed up morning...

    so this morning, around 6 30...
    i was suddenly waked up by some sound...
    and i figured it was from the mag drive pump of the mbu tank....
    when i ran up to the living room...water all over the floor again....
    at first i thought it was the sump again...because it happened before...
    but when i looked at the sump...it is almost empty...
    i was like..oh no..thats not good..
    and all i saw is water dripping down along the bottom of the tank...
    so the tank leaked...took me more than 2 hours, everything in the house that could suck some water...and a shop vec...
    it was really a nightmare...i have no idea how the tank leaked...or cracked somewhere...but it was leaking really bad..
    now busted my floor once again....and i have no idea what to do with the tank...
    omg...headache...
    my poor mbu has to crank up in the 40b for now....
    sigh....

              $120 for a 180g is the quote from this guy that City Pets deals with, so you're looking around that range or maybe a little less. I lost the number but you can just PM Donnie for it.
