Horrible Problem

[0pti0n]

Just found out 2 hours ago that my 90 gallon oceanic tank has a leak in the bottom corner. Bought the setup off craigslist guy said there wasn't a leak with the tank, I've had it filled for about a month and then blammo leak. Regardless I've been in this enjoyable hobby for a month and have all brand new equipment. And a few fish and crabs etc.

For starters 70lbs cured live rock which 60lbs is now on my balcony for the evening 10 in tanks. $400

Coralife 48in hood with 3 new bulbs $200 - bought it used for 200, just want money back

60lbs of aragonite sand, nice and full of bacteria - $40

20 gallon sump with baffels and fuge - 50

Mag 5 pump - 50

Coralife super skimmer 220 - 200 its brand new used for 2 weeks

2 tunze 6025's had for about 2 weeks - 140

90 gallon bow front tank with matching top and cabinet, overflow and drilled (small leak in front right corner) Paid $1000 last month, make an offer

2 small true perc's - 30
2 blue damsels - free.
All sorts of hermits, snails, just bought at j+l -50

I just started adding fish this is such a huge dissapointment cause I just don't have the time to mess around with repairs. AHHHK soo choked.

Take the whole system, i put probably 3000 in the last month into it. Make an offer

that's what I'm thinking - no sense in going through all that cost and effort to end up with nothing to show for it... the hobby is too awesome to bail on just because of a tank problem!!

C'mon, stay with us!!! You can doo it!

It sounds like it would be easier for you to just buy a new tank, rather than go through the hassle (and heartbreak) of selling off everything and being done with it all together. Just my opinion, from a guy who doesn't even own a SW tank anymore .
