220 exploded

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
What brand of tank was it and how old was the tank. My friend Tommy 220 gallon tank blew after 8 weeks. Sorry to hear about your problem.

Damn, I have a couple older tanks, but they are Oceanic w/ that old school lifetime warrant. I hope this never happens to me. Did they cover it in warranty?

man sorry for your losses and the tank, hopefully the ones that are left make it.
 
I have no idea who made my tank or how old it was. I had to dismantle the other panes of glass to get the tank outside. Because its pretty hard to move a 3 sided 220. The tank seemed extremely overbuilt. Even with a razorknife and 80lb braided line it still took ovef an hour to strip the silicone off the other seams.

Apparently not overly built enough rofl!

That sucks though.
 
Well both fish are still alive. The eel seems completely unnaffected by all this and was begging for food this morning. The sev ssems to be doing better only time will tell. Lunch is at 1, I will go home to meet drt guys and do another wc. I did 20% before I left for work. I have my pothos in the tub and I also threw 2 handfull of seeded bioballs into the extra media trays in the hob...
 
Damn dude... I don't even know what I would do if I were in your shoes. I feel really bad for you. I wish you the best.
 
Got bad news from DRT... The bill just doubled and I now have to take out a loan to pay them . And I also have to stay in a hotel until atleast tuesday. On top of all that I might just wind up single and jobless as well. Having to miss crazy amounts of work to deal with DRT people. Then sun didn't come out today...perhaps tomorrow!
