So today I decided to change the water while I was feeling up to it. Right now I have some Airline tubing set up to do an "automatic" water change, all I have to do is start the siphon and then vacuum out the bottom. I find this works much better on a BioCube, since there is less of a temperature shock, and the back is really annoying to try to level out.
It was all going good, since I had finally ironed out the kinks in the system, had 2 hoses going in, and one out. I wasn't paying attention to the intake hoses while I was cleaning, and one fell out. Then after a few minuets my feet got a little damp, so I look down, and boom, theres about 2 gallons of water all over the floor, rug, and wall. Seems that one of the hoses took a dive, but luckily it stopped siphoning after 2 gallons.
So thats my mini flood story. Lucky me I had some big lab liquid soaking pads down, and then some extras that were used to soak up the water.:twitch:
