The Grand Experiment

[Ty Hamatake]

no worries, I never have the intention to make someone look silly on here, so hopefully you dont see it that way. I'm just glad to have people involved in the conversation

I don't get that at all, just trying to own up to being wrong

Sorry to hear about that

mind sharing your experience? Specifically details on any wave makers you had on there

Sure.
It was actually my sump that gave way. The miter corner support at the top failed causing the tank to split. You can read about it here...

thanks I am going to dive in now

After looking: @Dan McNertney I see what you mean. not cool you had to deal with that.

My reason for asking about wavemakers is a rumor I heard concerning them blowing out tank walls due to oscillations in the water

Yeah.. many people do not realize that the average off the shelf aquarium cannot handle the stresses involved with wavemakers. Most wavemakers do have warnings in the directions.
Not that I read the directions, mind you....

Directions? what are those?

Whatever happened with this project? It’s like I just read a book with the last chapter ripped out...
