Home fire, 600 gallon acrylic tank melted

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Very sorry for your losses.. Glad the family made it out. The part about the pets really made we want to cry, i know how much i love mine. Hopefully you can find a loving puppy to help your wife and child start the healing process.
 
wow I actually made a good suggestion, wish u luck man when I first saw ur sig I was in awe, along with those threads. Good luck
 
Thanks for the thoughts. We are ok wife had a nervous breakdown and had to get her counseling, she saw and heard the animals burning and tried to save them but was held back by police. We will be ok trying to deal with insurance, finding a place, being strong for family etc

If anything you MTKers use this as a wake up call to check your fire alarms, electrical outlets and equipment, etc you never think this could happen to you but ... Yeah

Man that's absolutely horrible, but I know you and your family will rebuild and become stronger!

A circuit should have tripped if it had reverse load. Did you have light ballasts?

Again extremely sorry for your losses!

thanks everyone for your thoughts and words of encouragement, i will definitely be back someday , wherever i move, you can be sure there will be a monster aquarium in the future plan.

i'm looking for a puppy for my wife, i know it won't replace our dogs that perished but it will at least give comfort to her, at least that's what the counselor recommended. we are visiting the shelter shortly to rescue one.

i feel for your wife and you and children...... to me losing pets is like losing family... my condolences.......
 
My condolences for your loss! Can't imagine what you have to go through..
Any leads on which aquarium equipment or anything that started the fire yet? I heard older model Odyssea lighting fixture caught on fire but not sure what's the case here.

So sorry for your loss... and honestly more so for your wife, daughter, and your losses of other family members.. furred, feathered, and finned. I know I would not be ready to adopt another pet after such a trauma but if its what will help I hope you and your family recover well. another 'thought" would be to foster for a shelter/rescue until you found the right fit for your family =) so there is no preassure on your wife if its just not working out and she not ready ect. I have a few friends that have lost pets traumaticly that did this.. and it worked out great as eventually they found the right "foster" to adopt.
 
Hi All a new beginning. I just closed on this secluded area this morning. Time to move on and start planning the build of my future home. A monster fish tank is definitely being planned. Thanks again for everyone's thoughts, will keep you guys updated.
