I came home from work with the edge of the area rug in my living room soaked. I looked at my Biocube and sure enough, a path of water from the upper, right front edge down the glass and to the floor. I’ve drained a gallon of water out and turned the pump off.

If I let that top dry out, can I reseal and add water back in? I wouldn’t worry about it since I have a 65 as well, but the 2 fish in the 32 are a Clown and Yellowtail Damsel and they’re best buds. Not sure they'd behave in the other tank.

Any help is appreciated.
 
did you accidently move the return nozzle too high ? powerhead pointing too high ?

Funny enough, I adjusted the return nozzle to point in a more downward angle and same with the powerhead. Still had the leak.
