Thanks.

Our recent experience does not even hold a candle to Peters.

Only about 100G ended up leaking out. We were able to drain the tank before it completely drained itself.

We have floating wood floors so they will need to be replaced. I already have a new tank scheduled to be delivered.

How was it leaking? From one of the seams or ?

If you couldn't read the whole read what Peter had wrote on the failure there was no leakage nor any indication of an impending failure it was a sudden failure no warning at all.

If Peter or his crew had noticed any defect at all they would of done something about it.

The tank ran for 5 years and cleaned and inspected every 2 days in that five year period without fail as he was willing to show his tank at almost any time during the day so it was kept in pristine condition
