once I got up on Tuesday, I decided to feed the fish…
usually they get fed around 10:30, but it was just before nine when I got out the food and discovered that the water in one tank was way lower than the others…
it had been leaking out from the very top of the pump:-(… very unusual spot for a leak… I don’t think it had been spewing water for very long and set out to sort out the situation…
turned the pump off, used towels to mop up as much of the water as possible and then took out the filters and cleaned them… oddly, algae had blocked the bottom of the filter pack…
after cleaning the filters, they went back into the pump and everything seemed fine although it took a few hours to soak up all the spilled water…
whenever there is a leak, I am nervous for the next few days and constantly checking to make sure everything is fine, lol…
so far, so good 😊…
