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.

That's why Bob would never carry bow fronts in stock, failure rate was too high. You should be fine with yours, mine was el-cheepo all glass brand, make a good hamster cage for someone, would be an easy fix but been there done that, too old for rebuilding tanks, most likely toss it in the recycle bin.
I am just glad it did not drip into the 300, think that would have been the end for me.

Things like this scare the crap out of me. I'm glad it was a small-ish disaster for you rather than a big disaster. Although if you had water dripping through the ceiling to the lower floor you could very well have a lot of work to do to fix it up.
 Think on the bright side, at least it didn't spray saltwater onto the electrical and burn your house down. That scares me the most.

Lucky for me I put a drop ceiling in the fish room, only have 2 tiles to replace. There was a power bar that got wet but it tripped the gfci so I was lucky that way. Trying to convince my boy to do away with that tank but he has allways had a tank in his room and wants a replacement, I guess I'll have to buck up as I really have nowhere to put that livestock anyway.
