10. A power outage caused your sump to become the gravity siphoning sump of death.
9. That really good deal from the garage sale turned out to be a 20 year old tank with weak silicone seals.
8. Covering your tank to deprive algae of light seemed like a good idea until the towel/blanket somehow dipped in and transfered all of the water from the tank to your floor
7. You knew you had forgotton to silicone one of those seals and your overflow just became your worst nightmare...
6. Your HOB that everyone tells you to ditch got clogged up and somehow the water traveled down the cord from your heater (which normally just rest on the face of the non-raging filter), to the floor and slowly trickles out. (your first impression is that number 9 has happened until you figuire out it is a number 6.)
5. Gravel vaccing has gotton so intense that you start wondering why the carpet is soggy, and suddenly realize your bucket is on over-flow.
4. Your hose to the tank adding water gets left unattended for a "few seconds" when the phone rings. Either the hose falls out and starts flooding your floor, or it overflows the tank first and then starts flooding your living room floor.
3. Your R/O Unit has decided to miraculously deliver twice the normal output while you are sleeping -or- while changing filters you disconnected the supply line and forgot to hook it back up. It is all the same: a flooded floor.
2. The float switch valave recommended from some other sub-standard website fails causing a flood of freshwater to pour through your tank and all over your floor. If you are lucky enough your RO unit from #3 is hooked to a water supply and will continuously make more water for your floor to enjoy.
1. You got big tank envy and quickly brought home that new 400 gallon tank. They very next week your floor collapses sending the tank to your basement. A flood and insurance claim in one fell swoop. You didn't really like that house anyways right?
Koi Keeper- ;)
