Slow leak is better than a fast leak. Fast leak is better than the tank exploding. Lucky this one is a pretty easy fix with minimal damage

As a kid, I had a 10 gal tank. Went to the fish store and picked out the prettiest fish.
So I had 1 pleco. 1 Angel fish, 2 tiger barbs, 1 ghost knife. And 1 kuli loach in a 10 gal.
Needless to say, this didn’t end well.

Probably because of the overhang.

Back then when i was like 12 i had a co² bubble machine thst worked with backing yeast. Guess who filled up the yeast tank to high and ended up killing all fish over night with a yeast-mud flooding the 60litres.

a tank i bought brand new started leaking from the bottom of the tank🙂 thanks petsmart 🙂 bought a replacement at walmart and were good now, i bought two tanks ( one 33gal one 55gal) from a guy who owned a fish store out of his home (perks of small town living😂) and was down sizing, the 55 was from 1987 (it had a sticker on it) and the 33 well idk how old it was, the top of the 33 started leaking like the legit top of it down from condensation 🙂 the 55 gal was fine up until we decided to let it go it was a RIDE for two years but were all good now with our one tank😂

I was working from home and had to end a session early because I heard water splashing on the other side of the basement. My new shrimp tank had cracked all the way down the back and water was pouring out. Glad I was home and not in office that day. (Don’t worry; the shrimp were safely relocated.)

I found out before work yesterday that my 200L has a chip on one of the bottom. So now I gotta buy a new tank because FB marketplace is shite and id very much like my deposit back on my house

Hey!
I sell lots of these tanks, the leak is probably coming out of the filter section where the heater is hidden.
Make sure sponge is clean, known fault with the quadro & qubic tanks by superfish ✌️
