When you are done making RO I would still turn off the source water into your RO unit.

Normally I'm not so boneheaded and do turn my inlet water off. Just forgot to in this instance for whatever reason.. I'm sure my neighbours below me are so pleased!

I might have to look into doing that!

Kinda crappy part of my bonus at work has to go towards damages.. But what can you do!
I placed all my corals on the rocks today before I left for work so I will take some pictures tomorrow.

Have you even met your new neighbors yet Hi, nice to meet you, I'm the guy who just flooded your suite

Curious to know where you keep your brute - have any pics ?
You probably won't want to do what I did in your new place ...

Haha nope havent met them! Its in the utility room where my hot water tank, furnace and stacked washer/dryer is. I'm assuming their place is identical to mine so I woulda leaked into their utility room. No pictures yet.. Ill try to remember to take some.

Don't tell them you have a fish tank. They might change the condo rules and then you won't be allowed to have such a large fish tank anymore.

" It was a careless spill on my part. I was planning a new home party and left a bucket full of ice and spirits in my utility room, which overflowed when the ice melted and the bottles displaced the water "

There are plenty of ways around insurance issues

Hehhe that's funny.

Hey Wayne hope your tank is doing well. Just wondering what is your ATI module unit? and do you know the power consumption for the whole unit?
