Tank induced stress?

My tank shows how I am feeling. If something happens I feel like crap for days.

My tank stresses me out most days I look at it. Probably because it's never the way I want it to be since I am rarely home to work on it. But ya, that first fill...that's a real stresser!

Funny, I never thought about it. When I got my first big tank, I just filled it. Call it inexperience, but I didn't even think about it bursting or leaking. In future with the more experience I have, I wouldn't do that again. So I probably would freak a bit, on any future fills.

I've decided to wait until after I get back from vacation to fill it. Don't want to leave my GF with a 180g of water that may or may not explode. No, that would not be a good thing to come home to

How did you manage to work that deal? Go on a vacation without the missus? I need to know this ploy!

Water is still inside tank, so far it's good!!
