thanks. i appreciate everybodies compliments. the pet shop is the same one that got busted for frying someones dog while grooming it a while back, so they are dishonest (even though my friend was very close with the owner). nothing i can do...the insurance companies fight. i got the claim but the headache was just terrible.

thanks. i had 3 but they didnt stop fighting. also i had to do a 200 gallon water change every week just to keep their waste from accumulating. now my biggest pleco is a 6 inch bristlenose. although, my friend is holding onto the largest one for when i start up my next tank. he is around 26 inches now.

As much as I love big tanks and would love to have one I just can't imagine going through what you went through. Sheesh.

Edit: And I thought it sucked when my 20 sprung a leak.

That was an awesome asortment of fish, and I loved the look of the tank overall. I am so sorry to hear about all the damage. Hope all goes well for you now.

That's a shame. It was a really nice looking tank. It's sad that it broke. Hopefully something good will come out of it.

Scary. I know what kind of damage was caused by a mere 10-20 gallons. My hardwood floors are just now lying flat again (4 months later). I can't imagine 100's!
