Sooo many mini floods. The last one was the kicker not so mini just happened the other night. (long and I’m a bad story writer)
I pump from my RO/DI reservoir to my mixing bucket; I did that then turned off the pump and forgot to turn off the valve. So when my auto top off asks for water, instead of going up to my tank (floor above) went into the bucket overflowed on to the floor. A day and a half at 75 Gal. a day equals lots of water on the rug. Best part yet to come.
I figure that’s the last time I'm going to try and dry the skank old rug. Proceed to rip out the carpet, move everything out of the room. Leave one shelf full of stuff that I move pull the rug and move pull the rug. Remember it’s an old rug flooded a few times sopping wet, I'm bitter. Almost done pulling out the last of those wood strips that hold the rug down and pokes you full of holes. I bang the shelf something falls...bad sound, a WD 40 can falls gets punctured starts spinning & spraying all over my fish room. I jump up bolt for it slip on WD smash my head, spin around to the WD can covered in it! WD 40 all over the room and that shelf. That shelf … every thing fish related, part, pumps, spares things fish stuff in general. Of course my better half sticks her head around the corner at that time, “every thing Ok?” Tossed most all of it and the room just has this greasy feel to it.
Great way to start the remodeling of my fish room getting ready for a new tank.
