Some areas will receive more rain today but it appears the worst is behind us. Five people have drowned and there were more than 1200 water rescues. I stayed at home to avoid being a statistic. Mike

I got 4 1/2 inches of water in the house but doing ok. Water is out of the house and I started cleanup last night. Nothing like sitting on your couch and seeing the bathroom trash can "sail" across your living room all the way to the kitchen, I named it the s.s. FML...lol
little worried though about my 60g stand, it's nothing more than particle board/chip board and 4" of the legs are starting to deteriorate. Gotta figure out what to do with it.

After you resolve your flooding issue, I would replace the stand. You likely have about 600 pounds of weight on the stand. If a young person is nearby when collapsing, it could have serious consequences.

4 1/2" of water inside the house? Would that mess up your wall?

I hear that mike, iv been on edge about it.
and yes I'll have to replace atleast 12" up of Sheetrock. I'll likely go higher, maybe 24"
