Well I did something kinda stupid recently,

I have a magnum that i run carbon in and it sucks water from the main tank and blows it into the sump. I was doing a water change and shut off all of the pumps and the magnum . I completed the siphoning of the 4 gallon water change and noticed the water in the main tank steadily going down, Im thinking where is all of this water going? well even though I shut off the magnum I forgot it was basically a siphon now and was siphoning all of the water into the sump and all over the carpet...DUH!!!, learned real quick to close the valves on that thing.
