Worried about exploding tank. I do not have any leeks in my tank and the tank fits the stand it is on. I did not know that tanks could explode. I live in a apt and if it exploded I be in deep dodo. So should I be worried about my 40 tank exploding?
When tanks " explode", it's usually larger tanks that do that because they are not set up on an approved stand or are not setting properly on the stand. Smaller tanks would usually leak instead of exploding. The main thing to do is not go cheap. People trying to save money on the equipment ( tank brand, stands, filters, etc) are usually the ones that suffer the results of that decision. As Aiken said, your pipes in the wall are just as likely to burst as a properly set up aquarium is.: Not likely but not guaranteed.Worried about exploding tank.
