| Jackie - I have a 32g cadlights tank that is empty - other than some sand left in the bottom. It does need a good cleaning, and one baffle glued back on. I'm up in Heber. |

I want to thank rfoote he has offered me a tank:) Hopefully I can save the coral and horses and a few of the fish that survived.
I am so sick to my stomach right now. ------------- Jackie Stuver "wait these aren't the happy Hawaiians oompa doompa godly heaven on your face zoas? I dont want them then. lol!" Ksmart |

Well I am late night person and for some reason I was up until 4:30am that morning. My two boys who are night owls as well were still up and had decided to sleep in the front room(they are out of school for summer) so they were just getting to sleep as well when it started luckily they were in there otherwise it would have been a total loss:(
As for how it happened I am not sure. There is no bottom brace on the tank which I am sure contributed to it and the side panel of glass looked like it had completely shifted off the bottom glass. ------------- Jackie Stuver "wait these aren't the happy Hawaiians oompa doompa godly heaven on your face zoas?
