Have had a 30g Nano tank that has been running successfully for several years. One day after lunch I came back to find my tank leaking water on to the floor. I can tell you I have never experienced such panic in my life.
Leak somewhere under the tank that I could not see or get to. The stand was soaked and saturated with water and the integrity was failing.
Spurred on by my wife and in-laws I took this as an opportunity to transfer my build to a larger tank. Especially since the only thing I could find locally on such short notice was a 75g tank.
I had a good spot to place the new tank but the stand that came with it was terrible and not suitable for any type of sump. Luckily with some assistance I was able to custom build the stand and get a sump installed in there. I was also able to get this up and running with minimal addition cost besides new lights and other odds and ends to support the new size.
I am about 2 months in after the transfer and everything is looking good. Hoping everything continues to prosper and grow.
Worried that my Aquascape is not big enough and I need more live rock and hiding spaces for my fish to swim and hide.
