Hardwood Floor

I decided to go with a cork laminate on my floor just because I am a very messy person and I am counting on cork being water resistant

Of course any wood product has been dried to a certain degree so that when you add water you get a very nice buckling effect. I guess you could view it as static waves in your living room.

I just noticed my dog seems to be peeing on the side of my tank stand during the day. On the good side, my girlfriend can't blame me for the stained carpet around the fish tank anymore... Oh and yeah I've spilled some water once or twice...

Before I moved, had my 75g (with 4 leveling feet) direct on the hardwood floor without any problems.

Sure, spilled some tank water but also had milk and juice and a lot of other liquids, just wiped it up. Would be concerned if I had a mat or something under the tank that could trap water and wouldn't allow me to wipe the floor dry.

I have a 120g and a 150g in our family room (combined with sumps is over 300g) which are on a laminate floor...we have had no issues with water damage (and I have spilled MORE than my fair share!)...more issues with the dog we no longer have who liked to pee in one area of the floor...that did damage the floor...the salt water-no problem...if you have true hardwood I would be even less concerned...
