Default My tank is leaking :(

Well, after five years, the silicone on my 50g has decided to give up the ghost. I have a potential disaster on my hands. It has apparently been leaking for quite a few days now, but since it's a slow leak I only discovered it last night. My carpet is ruined.

I was going to take this tank down anyways since as you all know everything in it has outgrown it. However I was hoping to do it at my leisure, so that I could have time to build my 72g to be exactly what I want it to be (since every other tank I mostly just built around whatever good deal I could get, and I'm tired of everything looking so hodge-podge as a result of that).

Anyways. So due to circumstance, I have to take this tank down NOW. My 72g in nowhere in any shape or form to take on water. I haven't even resiliconed the bulkheads yet. So I am going to see what I can fit into my 75. I have to make space in my 75g to take on the new items. Oh man, what a lot of work this is going to be.

The rest ... which is most of the rock, and a lot of mushrooms, mostly ... it's all out of there.

I may end up needing to borrow an unused tank to use as a temporary holding facility. Jonny I know you have one, so, I'll see how the rest of the day goes, and you might be hearing from me.

What a weekend. My sister-in-law is moving into her new place, and needs help moving stuff and putting stuff together, and this is also the weekend I have to destep the mast on the Hobie and take her to winter storage in Conrich .... and now this. Who needs sleep?!
