Two weeks ago I had a dream that the seam on my BioCube came apart and over the coarse of the night it drained and the cat took my clowns.

Eek. Makes me a little scared for mine.
I don’t blame you. I’d probably do the sameI don’t know if they were dreams or the kind of dream during the waking cycle, but I had a few early morning wake ups the week before taking a Bobbit worm out of my tank!

Oftentimes my dreams involve a terrible parasite breakout (which, unfortunately, has actually happened in the past), or the stand breaking and the entire tank crashing down...

I have had those stand breaking dreams too! I DIYed mine so there’s a level of not trusting myself. I think all these dreams help us stay more alert tho which is always a good thing

I have a recurring dream that I forget to turn my pumps back on after feeding my tanks then I go away for a week and when I come back everything is dead. I keep waking up and have to go check all of my tanks. It's a love/hate relationship with them. I love them during the day but not so much at night! Haha At the same time I'm sure my fish aren't too happy to see my face suddenly appear at 2am so I'm sure it's love/hate with them as well!

Not necessarily a dream, but I occasionally wake up to the sound of splashing water or shattering glass. I then kick my cat off the bed in a blind panic and run to the tank, just to see that nothing's wrong. Of course this mostly happens after I set up a new tank or after redoing the plumbing or something.

I totally agree because a serious water leak goes way beyond just the tank and its inhabitants!! Now it's your home that's at risk. Thankfully I have not had this happen but did knock over a bucket with about 1/4 gallon (1 liter) of water in it and that was a mess to clean up! I'm always surprised at how quickly water spreads!!
My nightmare is the 10 yr old tank or seal breaking and leaking 90 g of salt water on the hardwood floor. (Australian Cypress) My rocks are mortared but I still can't get that vision out of my head.
The other lately is the moisture from the sump area (under tank) eventually turning the stand into mush and it all collapses... 90 g of salt water on the hardwood floors. I leave one of the doors open now,
I'd be sooooo dead. lol

I had a dream where I went to reefapalooza then tried to take an airplane back to Canada and I was blocked so I had to get rid of the corals. Then when I came back there had been a power outage and everything died

I dreamed last night that someone ran boiling hot water through my RODI system and as a result it was spraying hot water out of ever piece.
