Hey all,

I haven’t had a chance to look in person yet, but noticed from my cameras that I have a leaking Reef Casa 6 gallon Pico.

Has anyone else had issues?

More to come tonight once I am home. Thankfully this tank is just a few corals and doesn’t seem to be leaking enough to run the pump dry yet. Going to move everything into another pico tank I have on hand.
 
Is it 100% the tank is leaking? Whats that cloth or something behind the weir on the side of the tank, could that syphon some water out or something similar ❓
 
Yeah, it's possible, but seems unlikely that a little 6g tank is leaking like that. Could there be something wicking water out of the tank, or a malfunctioning ATO/doser? The filter bag or fabric on the back left caught my eye as well.
 
Yep, I hung the mesh bag on the outside, it was wicking water on me.

Disregard! Lol
