Hey Guys,
Yesterday I purchased some live rock about 150 lbs and placed them in my 135 gal tank, everything went well. This morning when I went to check out the tank, I heard a loud pop. I thought one of the rocks had fell and slammed against the glass so didn't think anything of it. Shortly after, I started to hear little popping noises, and then another big pop. The loud pop was from the center glass brace breaking off from the back glass and falling on the rocks. And all the little popping noise was from the seams breaking apart on all four edges. I flipped out and didn't know what to do. Gather myself and said to myself, "I better do something quick or you will have lots of water to clean up." So I quickly grab the Mag 12 pump and drain some of the water. Now I have about half of my live rocks without water.
So guys.. what should I do? take apart the tank and reseal?
I'll post a pic later tonite.
