@tharbin It looks like I missed something happening to your tank sir? If I can help in any way I definitely will.

I've been discussing it in my tank thread. It may or may not be a big deal that I may or may not fix. Basically, my tank was built by a junior fabricator that didn't get a seam or two welded as well as one would hope. The result is a bit of seam failure in the upper front left corner. The consensus seems to be currently that it cannot be patched without causing more problems than it fixes. I may or may not be able to have the top sawn off and have a new top made but I may not need to do anything. There, all clear?

Either way I'm probably going to yank everything out of the tank, clean it and build a new aquascape with mostly new rock. Or I may just take a nap as Lowell suggested.

I saw an interview with Sting who said this song was actually about stalking but somehow was seen by the public as a love song that was played at wedding receptions.
