Iowa Pet Foods and Seascapes Tank Explodes!!!

Hey Tim, now is the perfect opportunity to get the volcano! /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/biggrin.gif

 

I fixed it. /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/smile.gif It should've read "get the volcano!"

 

It's a skimmer that would be big enough to handle the tank.  It would easily outwork the 3 skimmers Scott was going to put on it.

 

Yeah not sure what ewe're gonna do yet for skimmers now lol.....and jim limping mostly because i'm a gimp and a wuss lol

 

Howdy, I feel bad for you, man what a thing to happen, I am very glad it wasnt a glass tank - someone could have really gotten hurt.  I am not sure if you are aware, but that tank can be pretty easily repaired, and when repaired it would be stronger then the original. If your not going to fix it- I would be interested in buying the "remains".

 

Saw the tank today and heard the story. Whew...not sure I would ever be comfortable filling another one again. Bigger is not always better. The one that is established is pretty cool. Frag the hell out of it and forget going bigger.

 

GUARANTEED this tank as it sits will most likely never be able to hld water again. The bottom piece broke, nothing in the seals. This is a acrylic stress point shatter which means the bottom would do it again. Either way it's going to be recycled probably as it's possibly worth something...
