Thanks guys... I got those dreaded words today from the wife... Call went a little like this!!!!
" Get your butt home now!!!! Your tank is leaking water all over, and your daughter is having a heart attack!!!!" luckily I was on my way home lol... I'm thinking great and told her "pull the plug!!!!!" so I get home and I see the floor wet and I'm preparing for the worst...:( well I lost about 10gal but the tank was okay I forgot to glue a piece of spaflex on the return pump and it blew off and pumped some water out lol.... Thank god... That was a long night last Friday... Guess I missed that one lol... All is well now.... Remeber don't plumb your tank at 2am when you have been up since 4am the day before.... 22hr shift I pulled, guess that's not bad, only overlooking that one thing... I'm suprised it held that long lol...

Btw. The skimmer is still running like a charm...
Also I'm really diggin the upside down cone I made inside the lid...
It stays perfectly clean and is easy to wash just the little part inside...
Also it keeps anything from ever making it in the airline..;)

No this came on a wild colony I got from Dave...;)
I guess it's photosynthetic it's doing really well in a lit area... My acro is getting great color so I know it's getting plenty of light...;)
