How do bottoms blow out and not ALL the water is on the floor?

Really sorry to hear about this. Stay with us though!

Yea I wonder about bottoms breaking too. I thought tempered glass was strong. Or is it just hard?

I always cringe when I see someone with a bare bottom tank. All I see in my head is a slow motion...

"Nooooooooo...... don't drop that roooooooooocccccckkkkkk!"


Either way, sorry for your luck. Hope everything goes better.


Buy yourself a nice BIG Christmas present.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Thanks Brad, ya the chromes came to me as an adult 5 years ago.. So it was just his time.. He had really slowed down the last month, it was expected. I hope the tangs do well for you.. They really are awesome fish was the closest smilie I could find for a sad smile.

Shelley, the tangs are doing great. The yellow was on his side in the bucket, but quickly came back when I agitated the water. Right now he is "tolerating" my yellow chasing him, which is funny, mine is 20% smaller and having no effect.
The corals are still getting unpacked, but I tell ya, I may throw some of mine out to make room
