![]() How many of you have your aquarium in your insurance policy? This may not matter so much to those of you with nano setups, but could you imagine 50+ gallons of water on your floor in a worst case scenario?
Have you thought about what you would do in a situation where your aquarium gave out? Are you protected financially? What precautions have you taken to prevent a blow out that perhaps others like me could benefit from hearing? Disclaimer: I'm not an insurance salesman. |

![]() Losing the water is a hassle but having the ability to make up a lot of H2O in a hurry is also insurance in itself. I had approx 120 gallons empty onto the floor one time which is another reason why I like having a 300 gal per day RO unit. I had the water I needed to top up the tank in a matter of a few hours. I also recommend maintaining a large reservoir of fresh RO water.

![]() When I purchase my insurance I always update my broker of my tank and equipments. My broker told me that livestocks are not covered however Water damage, the tank and equipments are. I was told to make a list and to include photos and if possible, manuals and receipts. It helps when my broker used to have a tank himself.

I do not have insurance on my tank or in home for my tank... However my tanks are in a room with concrete floor and the equipment that would be lost if something blew is minimal. Typical deductible would not cover it... and a drain floor drain is not too far, so minimal house damage would be incurred.
