You are not going to believe this. I was doing a water change in my quarantine tank and forgot to turn the heater off before i did it. so when i put the new water back into the tank it cracked the heater into 2 pieces. so i reach down trying to get the other piece in the tank and low and behold my arm overflows the tank and leaks onto my brand spankin new 27" flatscreen $350 TV. Boy was my wife not happy about that one. LOL Good thing I have a warantee i guess . LOL

Look on the bright side. At least it wasn't a 42 or more inch flat screen plasma.

Is a fish tank flood covered?
I'm not sure how you'd explain that one....

I can only imagine the kind of grief a move like that would cause.

Consider yourself fortunate that you didn't fry yourself as well....

Take it back and say it doesn't work. I'm not suggesting fraud. Some stores will be happy to replace the TV if it means winning a customer.

yes i got it from COSTCO and mailed in the warranty the day after I bought it. don't think it should be a problem there, they have great customer service.

Just tell your wife that you still have a TV it's 48" wide and it has lots of beautiful colors, movement, and fish ;)
Sorry it happened, glad you're okay, and IMO I'd rather have the aquarium than the TV ;)
Goodluck with the warranty!
