Oy! The thought of one my tanks leaking or breaking a seal or whatever scares the crap out of me. That and velvet.

I got a 90gal sitting here if you want it, probably won't fit your space though.

Thanks for the offer, I have 2 spare 90 's sitting here so I am good, my heart near stopped when I went in the fish room as it initially looked like it was comming from the 300, can't even imagine dealing with a leak on that. Finished cleaning up this morning, only casualty was 2 ceiling tiles, so not bad considering, one foot over and the leak would have dripped right into the 300 , considering the color of the water that was on the floor that couldn't have ended well.

oh man, now that would have been scary. I think someone on here that had their dishwasher leaking through the floor into the tank. My tank is in the basement as I wanted it on concrete slab so if there was a leak it wouldn't be a huge deal but I never even gave a moments thought to anything leaking above it!

Geez Dave what a bummer. Be thankful tho, it could have been soooo much worse.

Man that really sucks. Is the 90 FW or SW?
I managed to flood my office last monday with RO water when I messed with a bulkhead on the sump. All over our new ( just before X-mas ) carpet.
Thankfully it didn't spread past the corner or go downstairs.

It was salt, figure I lost about 10 gallons. Inspection of the trouble seam shows 4 small spots about an inch apart where the silicone failed to bond, looks like someone with oily fingers picked up the piece of glass during assembly.

Holy crap Dave! I just saw this thread. (Was away and missed it).
Wow, good thing you were home at the time! Still sucks though. Makes me wonder about my 90g bow.
