So I came home from work today and my wife said our daughter pulled some wires out of the sump. Luckily it was only my grounding probe. When I took a closer look I found 3 baby wipes, a plastic water bottle, a plastic phone, a flash card and a wooden or particle board puzzle piece.

I'm somewhat concerned about the wipes and puzzle piece. On the bright side some detritus was removed with one of the wipes.

Any insight in adverse affects of the above mentioned?

What's been dumped into your tank and what was the outcome?
 
Really couldn't tell you what the wipes will do .. Hopefully not alot
Iv had my son's Dory toy floating in my tank and many other toys in my sump , nothing ever caused a problem
I have now made my cabinet child proof lol

I was going to start a new stand build that will suit my current and more importantly an upgrade last weekend but my buddy that's going to help got sick.

She can't get into the cabinet but the 2 inches between the stand and the wall is all she needed.

At least he is smart enough to know where Dory belongs!
 
Grand daughter crashed a drone helicopter into display. Pulled it out almost immediately but the flat rechargeable battery had already expanded into a sphere. No harm to tank as it was still cycling at the time.
