Whoops! Looks like the acrylic seam gave way?

 

[Seagars]

wow. i think i sat at that table with my son once before!!!

 

[Tahiti]

I hope all the fish were saved.

man, I think that's everyone that owns a fish tanks nightmare

 

[Travis1787]

I've LITERALLY had nightmares about this happening and woke up relieved it was just a dream lol

 

[aguila88psi]

yeah, me too, ever since the RO tank float switch failed and flooded half the house every time I hear a drip noise I get paranoid lol.

 

[Ali :D]

What I find amazing is that if you know acrylic, you would have known that was going to happen from the day it was installed. That or it was installed incorrectly, these tanks have to be level. Hopefully livestock fared well but we will never know.

Pedro I just had that happen to me about two weeks ago on my wood floors due to power lose. Lucky for me I was home and got to clean up fast. Lost about 15 gallons.

 

[bigzman]

Anyone know who manufactured tank and the installer?

Seriously...

You were wrong ..... and you said seriously! Don't throw out ATM because they are not liked because on their TV Show. I would like to know why you even said ATM?

Don't know where he got it from, but ATM is 'credited' with it in this article

Because several news links reported that atm made the tank.

Regardless of builder I hope fish did not suffer and I hope the builder does the right thing and replace tank as this could be a lot of bad press.
