Worst Nightmare came true

Well Yes all the fish are okay Did loose 2 flower shrimp 
. After scooping out all the substrate and taking a good look at everything it appears that the seal on about 6 inches of the bottom rotted away and just finally gave way to the pressure of the water. That tank and wood stand have been scraped for the mear reason that it was beat up and scratched/used older tank with a solid oak dresser for a stand . Bright side of it all it was enough for my wife to allow me to get a whole Brand new fish tank which i got a hell of a deal on I got a 90 gallon to replace the 65 and a actual stand made for it and also a canopy and glass hoods with a nice strip light for 650 I will post pictures soon

make sure its level
that could have been the reason the last tank gave way
i am not sure but i dont think a dresser can hold close to 600lbs
