After 21 years our 150 gallon tank has sprung a leak. Not exactly what you want to walk into work in the morning. The fish I'm paying a daily rate for them to stay where they are. I have a new tank coming in the morning. It needs to be set up. Then my fish will come back this Sunday. Said in done this whole thing is going be expensive. |

Poor babies. Sounds like a mess but since fishies are staying somewhere it means they survived! Gotta find the silver lining! They just wanted a new home for all of their visitors in June!! |

Is the glass broken, or is it just a silicone failure? Can you fix it? New tank sounds expensive. |

If any of the beer bottles or cans got wet I will properly dispose of them for you |

Sure the tank is fixable. But if your going to do it right. The whole tank should be sealed to do it right. The business doesn't have time for it. Its getting replaced.... less down time. None of the booze got damaged. I found it quick enough for that. Kristi I wasn't sure if anyone wanted to stop in the Boiler Room. But it'll be up and running. |

I could use a tank like that, I'd love to grow a Plecostomus and see how big they can get. We used to have them when I was a little kid and we could trade them in for a younger one if it got too big for your tank. |

salt or fresh water? if salt don't forget to buy a bunch of cheep fish to condition you tank and water before you put the nice ones back in. I know it sound crude but my brother keeps saltwater fish and killed 350 bucks worth of fish conditioning one of his tanks before he learned that trick. |
