what is causing my tank cartomizer to flood like this?

It's pretty normal IMHO. When the tank gets low the pressure inside changes and it will get a bit more leaky. When I use carto tanks I clean them often with a qtip or paper towel. I get anywhere from 2 days to maybe 10 on the average carto (depends on thickness of juice) on the average.

Really like the look of your tank by the way, nice. the holes on your carto look big to me as well. Perhaps since you use 80/20 pg/vg maybe go for a smaller laser punch hole. Nothing to really worry about though.

naw i am about to ditch this tank entirely when i get the money soon i am buying a kayfun 3.1 clone and going to start building my coils.

Cartos get their air through the stem and aren't sealed so dry pulls or sitting for a while can allow fluid to leak down through that access point. The Kayfun gets it's air differently and has a sealed connector.
