It has been a while since the last update and I just wanted to let you guys know that our 200 gal aquarium had a major malfunction last night. First let me say that this afternoon everything is up and running,back to normal.
One of the steel clamps connecting the return hose to the bottom of the aquarium broke and sent water all over the bottom of the cabinet and onto the carpet before I got the return pump turned off. All I and say it that it was a good thing we were home, if not it would have completely drained the 45 gal sump and more than likely burned up the pump. Anyway we have a wet/dry vac which really helped during clean-up. When performing tank maintenance be sure to check all the small thing that you may take for granted.
