Its not just about luck, I'm sure a series of timers and/or float switches could have been used to prevent something like this.
Lets figure out a system so it can't happen again

nothing that fancy, it is a temporary tank holding 60 lbs of rock 4 corals and a clownfish while I clean out my big tank, it has only been running for 3 months or so and every week I turn on my RO (with out the booster pump) for between 1 hour and two hours to top off the water. well I was topping it up and had the timer set but we got messed up and left before the timer went off so I forgot to shut it off. Plain and simple stupidity.. my main tank has a float valve top off system that has worked flawless in 4 years with only a 5 min cleaning every 6 months.
