Do you think you will try again?

I will, I was so upset when it first happened. I knew flooding is always a risk, and really, I was waiting for it to happen-but not to that extent-especially when it was preventable. Eeverything is out right now as we redo the condo. It wouldn't have been a big deal had it been plain water-but it was salt water. Im thankful I didnt have any rock yet.

Glad to hear that. It is so exciting watching things grow and interact.

One low tech trick I use so that I don't forget to turn something on or off, is that I set a timer that beeps at me. The beeping reminds me I have to take care of it or reset the timer if necessary - so far has worked great.

..you're not kidding. I have always had such a problem with forgetting silly little things-but this never! it was a routine thing I did all the time-that why it makes me so upset.

That really sucks, on a plus side at least there wasn't any livestock in the tank yet. I went through a top off disaster with a freind leaving the top off running all night and it ended up killing pretty much everything in the tank Really sucks though having to replace all the flooring
