Holy Crap

That must really be a frightening experience. I feel for ya Deb

So how old and what brand of tank is that. Did it just blow out on it's own or was it caused by other actions. Also was the tank plumbed or not?

I contacted Hagen last year and they advised me that any tank of there's should be replaced between 8-10 years due to weakness of the silicone.

Now I'm gonna have trouble sleeping after that pic.

Hope the cleanup goes well
cheers, Rich

Deb, I am so sorry!!!

What is the update? What happened with the tank? I hope you got compensation from the store you bought it from...

thanks for the reminder guys

The tank was only a couple months old and just locally made. It wasn't plumbed. It was in perfect condition when I fed the fish 1/2 hour earlier, and empty right after.

We bought a new one elsewhere the next day.

Not to sound rude or anything but do you think your stand had anything to do with it Ive cracked a 45 gallon that was on wood and concrete cinder blocks before. just a thought.
