Oops I did it again!

[gnashty]

Im telling you guys, its been a rough couple of weeks for reefkeeping for me..

I had an ATO spill last week TWICE in teh same night resulting in about 20 gal of water in my stand, 2 lost RKE modules and an MP40 Power Supply.

Last night I did a WC and left a valve open resulting in about 10 gal of water in my stand. I wake up this mornign and my stand is full of water AGAIN!!! FML - My ATO back siphoned this time as I was careless last night after cleaning up that mess. what really sucks is the sump water got to about 90 degrees from all the pumps running in a tiny amount of water....and I lost another MP40 Pwer supply and another RKE module...

So.....anyone got an MP40wes power supply they will sell me cheap???

I feel your pain. Last week was bad for me. House flooded. Its a mess. :yuk:All of my hardwoords have to be replaced, furnace, dry wall, etc.... Thanks god for insurance. Over 20K worth of damage. Lost my cell phone. On top of that, my dog of 14 years died:sad:. But god is good.:thumbs:

This hobby takes no prisoners. Water is easily one of the most unforgiving substances on Earth. =(

Sorry to hear about your troubles. ATO systems really need to be respected.

The bad thing is it is all user error and negligence....for my issues anyway.

FYI - pond liner only works well if the water cant get under it!!!!
