treesprite August 16, 2007 Share August 16, 2007 so sorry! you're one of the last people I would think would be going out :( so are you even going to be continuing the nano projects or are those out too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trble81 August 16, 2007 Share August 16, 2007 Did your tank crack again or was there another point of failure? I hope you were there when it happened to try to minimize as much damage as possible... --Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NSC August 16, 2007 Share August 16, 2007 Sorry to hear it, time heals all wounds as they say any chance your folks will chill out after the water dries? Or maybe respond to a "Save Jason" petition in the forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanman August 16, 2007 Share August 16, 2007 Wow... that sucks! But, as a parental - our houses are our biggest investments, and we hate to see them damaged. Tell them you need a large, heated/cooled shed out back for your 240 next year. You'll have to hobby vicariously through the mermaid's tank for a while, it appears. bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason the filter freak August 17, 2007 Author Share August 17, 2007 You'll have to hobby vicariously through the mermaid's tank for a while, it appears. bob This is probably whats going to happen... Basically, any one rember those float switches I donated last meeting... I should have figured out how to use them. I had a 5 gallon bucket under my tank that I kept top off water in, I had a power head and a hose hooked to it going into my tank. I flipped the power head on, takes about 5 minutes of running to top off my tank... well on of my dads chinchillas was in labor and I needed to check on her. Well the chin came out alright (took about ten minutes) walked back up stairs into the kitchen and low and behold theres a puddle of water on the floor. Comming from the celing, the entire bucket emptied into my tank (my tank only needed about a gallon.) New item added I will remain active.. though probably not as active...(probably to some peoples relief ) I'm trying to talk them into something maybe a 40 breeder with redundant back up systems and better equipment. I will continue the nano project, and will continue to try to help wamas as I can including staying on the TOTM comittee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davelin315 August 17, 2007 Share August 17, 2007 If anyone is heading to Jason's from this area, I'll take the 8W ballast. I have an old UV that has a burned out ballast that I've been too lazy to replace (for 10 years!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davelin315 August 18, 2007 Share August 18, 2007 C'mon, why all the gloom and doom here? You know he's just going to go crazier with his girlfriend's tank now and that he'll be getting another tank soon enough! I'll bet his mom will go crazy when he starts doing nano mods even more now that he's going to be without a bigger tank and when she starts finding more and more chips from drilling wood, glass, pvc, and acrylic she'll relent and ask him to simply get the big tank and be done with all of the little ones!
