Didnt feel a thing. Tanks are cool, but my bong spilled somehow......

Its funny because I never even thought of the fact that you Cali MFKers have earthquakes. Thats gotta be pretty scary as far as fishkeeping aside from being pretty scary regularly.

My 180g doesn't worry me at all. It's got a width of 24" and sits on a stand 27" wide. It's stable. Even with a good shaker, I don't see anything shifting. maybe some water splashing/sploshing, but nothing major. The tanks with the higher profile and less width could be a problem.
It's crazy to think about though. I remember back in either 92 or 94 a big one hit. My parents pool lost probably 1/2 - 1' of water. I suppose the dimensions and no top on the pool make it a completely different situation, but the power an earthquake unleashes is crazy.

We are so lucky here to almost never get extreme weather.

WTF!?! Isn't half of the UK currently under-water???? And wasn't there a huge heat-wave a couple of summers ago?

I live in Santa Clarita and it "gently" rocked the house.

Hopefully, cost of living will go down at that point.
