Give me all the Euphyllia
What a morning it has been. Wife woke me up at 2 AM saying some weird noises were coming from the tank. I didnt think too much of it until I walked into my office where the tank is and walked onto wet carpet. Then the panic set in.
I quickly opened the door to the sump area only to find that my Skimmer had somehow began to severely overflow itself throwing a ton of water out of the sump and onto the bottom of the cabinet which leaked out onto the carpet. This is on the main floor. Went down to the basement and saw that the water was coming down the unfinished part of the dry wall and pooling on the floor. I am so glad I caught it as I have 2 large freezers thats outlets got wet and threw the GFCI, if I hadnt caught that I would have lost the whole cow that we just purchased.
Basement is dry as of this morning and letting every fan we have in the house dry the carpet along with a dehumidifier.
Im convinced something like this was bound to happen at somepoint.

my algae scrubber did something similar, it started spilling water all over the place because algae had clogged the screen. I only lost about a gallon though.
