Pretty similar thing happened to me, but I also happened to find the silver on the ground dried solid.

midnight;2369952; said:i guess this thread jinxed me lol
when i got up i noticed the lid where i feed on the 240g was flipped open
i said,i know i didnt leave that open
get closer,i see the latch is broke
he hit the lid so hard it popped my siliconed down diy latch
the pin was in the water
he has a nice scrape down his side "hasnt been swimming much after this also
those latches i made and tested
i hung like 5-10lbs of weight off each one
it has some rust on it now but for all this to happen he had to hit it hard
so he hit it so hard to
snap the latch off
flip the lid open,and it stay open "just like the first pic"
and the pin to come loose and fall in the water
you can see in the second pic the wood is wet so it was a splashy one also
he is a monster
lucky no fish got out
