![]() [rant]
So here I am puttering around my tank today trying to get the stupid bulkheads to quit leaking so I can finally get my sump running. I had them fairly loose since I'm paranoid about cracking the glass, so of course they leak, and need to be tightened up more. I am such a procrastinator. I am tightening up the last bulkhead and CRACK. There goes the sump. ![]() SO I siliconed the crack thinking that would prob do the trick since the crack is only about 3" long, and 3 hours later I am messing around in my planted fw tank and I hear CRACK. Another crack splits up the other side of that bulkhead. Oh for hell... Now I have to go buy a new sump, reinstall the baffles, drill the holes for the bulkheads, buy a bunch of new plumbing pieces, and basically redo the entire thing since I can't get the plumbing apart to repair it. I'm ready to kick the sump. [/end rant] Last edited by Myka; 07-18-2009 at 11:41 PM. |
