It started 2 weeks ago when the 4 month old 75 gal refuge started to let go. One of the baffles that holds the sand and MM in place came loose. I planned on next weekend to resolve the issue.
On Friday it completely let go and sent a lot of the sand and MM into the display. So next weekend just became this weekend.
I called the maker and he said bring it to me. YA, that is as simple as unplugging and throwing in the car.
I bought a used sump for $50, which I have plans for later, and started the tear down. All is going well until I could not get the bulkhead to stop leaking, I tried everything until i noticied a minor bump on the seal area. I end up having to file it down. I was not sure what caused it. Used stuff you never know.
I use a dart sequence on this tank and as I'm inserting a
[hr]
into the outlet, I hear this crack.
There goes the houseing. I was not even putting any pressue on it either.
It's 8Pm and I started this darn thing at noon. I'm wet/the floor is very wet from the sump leak/cracked houseing/stressed fish/tank temp has dropped by 2/no solution to get the tank up and running..............
I end up using the skimmer pump and PH till I get a new pump in a few days. Sorry for the complaing.... I feel better though. hahaha
After the teardown, what should I do with all the LS and Miracle Mudd?
Thank you
