God what a relief, I was so close to taking a bat to the whole tank, although it would've made a even bigger mess but that was my mind frame at the time. Its was funny I checked all around the fitting yesterday and the bulk head but I guess it was such a small leak, it was jsut hard to detect. regardless its sealed for now. Thanks for all the concerns from the canreef community. You guys are amazing!
You sure like to scare us, don't you,... with the new leak, and all the crazy talk. But glad it's all under control again,... and you're back to normal.

It is not surprising to have a small leak with all the changes and plumbing you had to do with your bulkheads and new sump. Any time there is a change, that is always a risk, and could be problems. But hopefully, they are minor and easily fixable.

Hope you get a chance to relax now, and enjoy that beautiful tank again.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.
