Ok, sorry no pics for so long. This should hold you over for a bit.

First, some pics of my current, temporary-temporary setup. I have all my livestock, for the past week+ in a 20 gallong sump b/c, as you'll see from above, I thought my 75 gall sprung a leak while moving it.

Here's my temp-temp setup:





You can see the sump to the left and straight ahead is the 55g tub with the test of the LR, Water, and Fuge

Tank:



Tub:





Now, today, I've finally gotten around to testing the leak in the 75. I originally filled it up only a few inches (b/c thats where we noticed the water dripping before).

Nothing happend then so the next step was to fill it up completely to see if there was any water leakage.....and NOTHING!

See pics below of the fillup:


My wife had lots of questions about this...





Half full (or half empty. depends on how you see things)



Still, no leak!

Finally, full:





Nothing. Its been out there for about an hour or two and not sign of water. I'm going to let it sit for awhile just ot be sure.

But, I'm going with the conclusion that it was just excess water sitting in the framing along the bottom of the tank. Right??
