hi froggsong good to see you over here (assuming you're the same froggsong from vivarium forum)

About 16 inches of water and one of the bulkheads started leaking. Not seated tight enough evidently because the other three held fine. Pump kicks butt pumping water out. I need a sump pump or bilge type pump to pump out the rest of the water.

that sucks, but, its good that you figured it out now!

MIke

 

[Nolapete]

Yeah, I kind of knew it before I started filling, but got sidetracked.

Just a little reality check...

1" of depth in my tanks is right around 60 gallons...

The 16" test fill equated to around 955 gallons...
