    Tank broke, doubtful of continuing the hobby

    Interesting, this is something that would be safest option at the moment (I'm really paranoid with everything that has to do with water and wooden floor right now).

    I live in Finland, so I should eye the euro markets for acrylic tanks. I thought they were more pricey tho, definitely going to consider now!

    Tank broke, doubtful of continuing the hobby

    Oh my, good to hear that. I honestly never knew plastic tanks were that fragile. I think I need to consider nano then :angel: Thank you for letting me know!

    Tank broke, doubtful of continuing the hobby

    Oh man, hearing your small tank started leaking just like that made my heart skip a beat :eek: I've spent the past week (I know that I can finally return back home in few weeks) thinking what to get, and I was wondering getting a nano tank I've always dreamt of. But just thinking that it could...

    Tank broke, doubtful of continuing the hobby

    Yeah what I've read now I suspect that's the case. Plus I think moving it probably damaged the seal a bit which made it break easier, so probably would've happened in the future anyways. I'm trying to convince myself to keep going, but it's just really hard right now. The repairs have been...

    Tank broke, doubtful of continuing the hobby

    Thanks for the nice words :) Like you said, there's always going to be something that goes wrong in this hobby. I've had fish for a while now and this is my first leak, so I guess I've had it easy ;) I had to make the decision and gave both my tanks away cause I couldn't fit them anywhere (I had...

    Tank broke, doubtful of continuing the hobby

    (OP with another account, my main one is having issues) I guess this is one of the unfortunate 'stuff happens' case. I never knew the stand was that bad tho, I'm really surprised to read that many people dislike stands like that. But it makes sense that it's not supporting the corners, and...

    Tank broke, doubtful of continuing the hobby

    (OP with another account, my main one is having issues) It truly looks like something sharp, like a needle, poked it. I did some research and acrylic tanks seem to be hard to find from where I live, need to order from the internet. But surely a worthy idea to consider :) Is there any other...

    Tank broke, doubtful of continuing the hobby

    OP here, for some odd reason my main account is giving me an error so I created a new one so I can answer you guys. Thank you for the encouraging words, I really need those right now. I had to give both of my tanks away cause they have to do renovation to my whole living room where the tanks...

    Tank broke, doubtful of continuing the hobby

    Hello fellow fish keepers. My worst nightmare happened 2 months ago when my Juwel rio 180 started leaking from its side. Fast forward to present day, my apartment is still under repair and I had to give away my second 100L tank with all its stock. So currently I have no fish or tanks. I'm still...
