:lol: u beat me stella

thank you all so much, i have 3ft on the way,thanks olly heaps... :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

Crap that sucks sorry to hear about that nothing worse than a flooded house..

Think on the bright side though at least you got there in time to save the fish! And there are people out there with spare tanks (I also have a whole fishroom full if you need one)..

How did the speaker break the tank?

well the carpet cleaners are going to come now and the accessor will be here on tuesday to look at the tank

quickly find someone with a cracked 8footer, lol... put it in your lounge... lol..

no only joking.

are all the fish ok?

haha, that would be nice,,the fish are suprisingly well no losses other then my jewel cichlids might not hatch and they are my first eggs...

Wow, sorry to hear

As Ryanjury asked, how did the speaker break your tank?

Caper

that damn speaker,

Huh? :-?

Been there done that - I broke my tank and had to purchase an overpriced emergency tank on Trade Me - poor fish were stuck in a small tank until I could get a decent-sized one.

Took me a week for the dehumifier to clean up the water on the carpet (damn it happening in the middle of Winter) - now using carpet cleaner to hoover up the stain - seems to be working.

The old tank is going to become my vege greenhouse/terrarium this Summer - going to plant them today

the speaker vibrated itself off the wall unit and it fell through the side of the tank..

I am getting a new one made, pick it up saturday..

Awesome I hope that insurance came to the party and paid out so you can get a bigger one

Will be interesting to hear how the insurance thing goes.

And do you rent or own?

remember double sided tape must go on the base of the speaker now...

cant have you breaking more tanks! lol

the dageti you gave me has gone missing btw, lol

I own house, insurance excess is $200 and i just have to pay $110 and the tank is getting made for $90,,1200mm X 500mm X 500mm, also getting new underlay as soon as the floor is dry, and then my carpet back all cleaned and dry, oh and dont worry the speakers will be on the floor from then on...
