I don't have leaking problems with properly wicked and set up tanks if they are upright and etc. I try to only keep "active" setups going now due to the dread "parasitic battery drain" which for some reason always makes me think of having a tapeworm.
Oh sure, some aspects of it sound great to a chick who has been slacking on the yoga.. Like, uh, the eating EVERYTHING and never gaining weight. But you are also NEVER getting full and the tapeworm can get pretty large plus you have something INSIDE YOU ALIVE STEALING YOUR nutrients.
It's like freaking ALIENS but I am in no way like as manly and tough as Sigourney Weaver and I don't want to deal with that.
I suppose it's good and means old tanks get cleaned and put away but I still never liked ANY of those movies. They are all terrifying.
Also, if anyone had told me I would write the above statement EVER in my RTA life, I would have been "YOU LIE!" but keep at it enough and well almost anything could happen.
I wouldn't mind if my METABOLISM is like a tapeworm but it's pretty high. But not like a tapeworm.
