Sliced Bread
I have an old Eclipse 12 tank that I was contemplating using for a project, but when I pulled it out of storage it was scratched up and had a few very small impacted areas on it, so I decided not to use it and put it back in the closet in my basement completely empty.
So just now, I'm sitting here talking to the wife and we start to hear something, kinda sounds like dripping water at first, then gets louder and more frequent, then becomes an apparent cracking sound. Sure enough, the acrylic tank split right down the middle, top all the way to bottom.
What could have caused that? the split occurred away from where the cracks from storage were. There's nothing in the tank, and it's sitting on carpet.
Way too wierd.
Good thing I didn't fill it up, huh?
