Thanx for the input.
Strangely enuf, the only tank that has ever "sprung a leak" is a 10 gal that I bought from Wally's world. One day I was at the computer & I heard a sound at the tank. I looked and the lone goldfish seemed happy so I forgot about it. A few minutes later I heard water dripping. The tanks bottom had cracked. It was on another computer desk with a 3/4" oak board under it for additional stability. To this day I can't figure out why it cracked. The oak bord was straight and true, not warped.

Thank you
Charles
