Looks like I've been having nothing but bad luck lately, with aquariums. I came home from Thanksgiving with the family only to observe the remains of Brown puddle on the floor with a large tank. Sure enough I prop stand to find automatic doser kana is absolutely empty. Turns the tube, which pump ran to the top of the aquarium in a fallen and falls behind the stand (it is only owned by Suction Cup) and without that height for delay of pump, 30 days from the manure slurry (Yes, I was just added to it a few days before I left) emptied on me in within two or three days in one minute intervals. I think this could be worse ... but all these fertilizers wasted and great shading on my floor now have taught me not to trust one suction cup again.
Only two weeks earlier I bought brand new Marineland heater for large tank (exactly like the one in the picture above), then, that I was there was damaged in the transfer. After several months of this weekly water changes without heater I was too accustomed to simply spend siphon water. In the middle of my first water change after receipt of the heater I heard some weird popping noise and saw shame leaves are cooked on the outside of the glass heater. I had forgotten to turn off before I squeezed the water down and has gotten so hot is cracked glass. Brand new heater is well fried, but cracks in the glass are almost invisible. Fortunately I don't tempt fate and off it, and it is to examine it. Of course it just enough treatment, it disintegrates. To spomenavame I bought Theo heater, which has should offer some protection against running dry, but I'm also going to be much more careful in the future. Heating are one of the most dangerous parts of the equipment in the tank (as Jestep opened recently), so be careful with them!
Sometimes small accidents this hobby may be the real Brains of the portfolio. I'm just glad I was not close to catastrophe, as the end well! (knock on wood)
