Came home the other night to a horrible disaster. The bottom of my 150 deep cracked and the water drained out and everything is gone :cry:

Phin! I'm SO SORRY!!! That is awful..... do you know what made it crack? Was it an old tank (don't they have warranties on new tanks for stuff like that?).

Unfortunately the rock is dried out. Not enough room to keep it alive as well. Still have a lot of great pieces that should take off again in an established tank.

So how much are you asking for the rock?? and where is it located???
