Leak!

I went home last night and found water in the basement. The good thing is it wasn't my tank or the hot water heater and was only in the unfinished basment area where the furnace water heater and utility sink are. I also keep a small tank and trash can of water there.

So it was appearently the rubbermaid roughneck 32 gallon trash can. It was half full of saltwater. It wasnt a fast leak. There was maybe a gallon or two that had leaked and mostly soked into a piece of carpet on the floor. And at least my mag7 didnt run dry that was in there to keep it mixed. I pumped the water out into the sink drain. Then used a rag to sop up what I could and wring into a bucket. With the dehumidifier and fan on it, it was pretty good this morning.

Anyway, I am going to be using a tank to hold water. No more trash cans for me. i just have to clean up my 37gal now.
