So, it was suppose to be just a lazy do nothing kind a day right.....WRONG!!!! So sitting looking at my tanks, I figure I have to move the 2 sevs out of the 30g cause well, that is turning into the sump for my 55 sw tank. Well, I figure glass cages is suppose to be in Chicago on the 15th (which I've been waiting for them so I can get the 180W I've been wanting) so I figure to heck with it, I'll rearrange my 55, 75, and 30 to get the 30 free and everyone would be fine a few days right. So I take my Sevs out of the 30 move them to the 75, take my Oscar and move him to the 30...till I can get everyone else rearranged.

OH, in the meantime I ran to Wal-mart, cause I needed more raw shrimp for the fish and lip balm for myself..while there, I mistakingly go by the fish...needles to say I ended up feeling bad (again) for a betta that had water barely above it's back and I get him...well I need a tank for him right, so I go over and get the 14g "kit" so my trip to that should of ran me about 20 bucks ended up costing me 123 bucks instead!!!! So I get home, move the 10g out of my room and into the living room and set the 14 up in my room. Well, the betta is very happy and very pretty...he is white, with blue and pinkish through his fins...I'll post pics later.

So I get back home and continue on my fish move...I get all the decor out of the 30 and the 55...arrange things in the 55 how I want them...then take the 2 sevs, my 3 JDs, and the firemouth and move them into the 55, rearrange the 75 and add the Oscar...now it is time to go to the meeting that is at work...come home and guess what, the 75 is LEAKING!!!! Now it is 8:30, I'm franticly calling every fish supply place with in 60miles of home...it's sunday so no place is open.....Pet smart has a 150 w/ is the biggest tank in the area, so needless to say I am NOT going to be able to wait until the 15th obviously for the 180, and will now have to go soon as I am up in the morning to get the 150, come home and start over with moving them around....hoping the entire time the tank doesn't completely drain...as I really have no place to add ALL the fish.

Oh did I mention the water bath I got when trying to move the Oscar, or the time I sprayed the ceiling with water when I thought the sink was turned off and I turned the lever on my python to "drain" the water out...well the sink was still on and instead of the water going out toward the sink...it flew out and up the end spraying the ceiling and splashing on my head and floor!!! Or how about when I was filling the 75 and when I turned the lever for the water to flow into the tank and the python FLEW OFF the faucet, causing a major flood in the kitchen yet again!!! How about when I was filling the 55g walked out of the room and the python fell out of the tank and water went all over the floor in there!!!

Oh yeah, what a relaxing do nothing Sunday!!! Only bright side to all this...is I WILL be able to get the 180 in a couple months still and now I can turn the 150 (I hadn't planned on getting) into a SALT WATER TANK!!!!!
 
wow that made me tired just reading what you did!..LMAO.:grinyes:
 
Yeesh...have a coffee cup of wine!

or a bottle! ;)
LMAO...Yeah, Jinkz I'm thinkin skip the cup and just drink it from the bottle kinda day:grinyes:
Wow you did have quite a day...what was it that caused your 75 to leak?
I have know idea, all I know is I have water coming from under the tank...it has gone down about 1 1/2" in the last 3 hours..I have 2, 5g buckets one in the middle and the other at the end of the table it is on...both are about 1/4 full right now...I figure I will empty them and replace them before I go to bed and check it again through out the night as I'm sure I wont be sleeping much...then do it in the morning before I leave...the closest place is about 45min away!
