stupid moment of the week/mouth/year

Well I went to my apartment on my 30min lunch break to get my cell phone charger, and when I got there I noticed Bloats tank was low on water. So naturally I grabbed my trusty 1 gallon milk jug, filled it up and dumped so water in the tank so the wet/dry would stop making so much noise. Afterwards I flipped on his light to show my gf how much clearer the tank was since the addition of the AC 110 she got me for my Bday. Well after I turned it on I noticed the tank had a white haziness to it. My first thought was just microbubbles from the wet/dry. Looked closer and nope that wasnt it. So I went and looked on the milk jug and noticed the expiration date was may28th, the one I had been using for topping off was may6th(dont ask me how i remembered lol). Yep sure enough used the wrong milk container. The one I used is the one I had finished off a few days ago and had been left out, so it had some rotten milk in the bottom. So I called my supervisor and told him that I was going to be about 30 mins late getting back to work lol. Did a 50% water change in about 40mins(usually takes me an hour).

I dont think a lot got in there to start with maybe just a teaspoon or so, but with how sensitive puffers are and the fact it was rotten milk, I just couldnt chance it. Im going to do another change tomorrow and hope all is well. Now I cut the top off my good milk jug so I dont make that same mistake EVER

I think I might have noticed that rotten smell.

I have a supernatural sense of smell, it's 99% just plain annoying, but helps in rare situations.

That is hilarious...

It didnt have all the much milk in it to start with, and my smelling sucks most the time lol

Unfortunately, human beings are not exactly perfect. I have wiped out two liked tanks(40-long & 33XL, breeder and grow-out) by grabbing the wrong bottle - Excel does not do the same job as Prime.

hopefully everything is ok! so far the worse i have done was use my "old water" labeled bucket to use for new water being put in. i have left the bucket filling up in the kitchen and heard after a minute or two my roommate say "oh man!... Justin!" because the hose somehow came out of the bucket

Ya everything is good., tank is perfectly clear again and Bloat is being as lazy as normal
