Really really bad news. I am on the verge of shutting it down. Came home last night to a puddle of water. The filter sock has filled up with water and started to overfill. In the short period of time where the wife went up stairs to cook dinner it has dumped a **** load onto the carpet. I pulled out the bag and replace it with a new one thinking its solved but this morning the towers I put down are just soaked. I found a drip per sec coming off the corner of the stand on the bottom and just cant find where the leak is coming from. If this doesn't get resolved soon, I am gonna sell everything and shut her down.

dibs on the biopellets!

sorry.. couldn't resist. Sucky news man. So is the leak coming from the new sump? Hopefully it's just a fitting that needs tightening or a bit of plumber's tape.

Rich, turn off the plumbing for now and drain the sump. I will come over tomorrow night to help. I would come tonight if I can.

Coming off the corner of the stand? Or sump? Probably just a plumbing fitting. Stop with the "shutting it down" stuff. You'd be miserable.
