Exactly, plus if you damage the apartment, and your deposit doesn't cover it they will go after you for the remaining money. One of the best things you can do is get renters insurance, so many people don't have it and think that the landlord is on hook in case of a fire or flood, but they aren't if your stuff is destroyed.

And to put renters insurance into perspective I just got 12 months of renters insurance for $125.
It covers $25,000 in personal property loss and has $300,000 in liability.
So for basically $10 a month and less than much of my aquarium equipment costs, I am protected if disaster strikes.

thankyou everyone! the inspection was today and they were actually impressed with my tank and had tons of questions and huge grins on their faces! thanks for all the help!
i surprised my landlord with 200 gallons of tanks and he didnt mind just had me get renters insurance
i lived on the second floor of an apartment complex that had a no pet rule. i asked about a fish tank and was told i could have one, i guess they didnt fit into the no pet rule or they were assuming that a small aquarium wouldnt hurt anything even if something were to happen. i ended up getting a 70 gallon and monthly the lady in charged walked around with the exterminator but never said anything beyond it looking nice and how she tried to have gold fish but the died.
And white your at it, put a lampshade over your TM so they don't recognize "the tube".
