The Incubator From Hell!

So I built a TIT with two 50 gallon Rubbermaids. Nothing special, just a regular TIT with a 200 watt aquarium heater and a small water pump to circulate the water for leveled temps. Its been running for about 2 weeks now.
Last night I get a knock on my door at about 4 AM. It was my friend who is staying in my house, he tells me that the dogs shit in the house (I have three American Bull Dogs, two of them are puppies). As I get up from my bed to go clean their mess and place mt foot on the floor, I realised the floor was wet. I figured that iut was a small flood from the cool mist running 24/7 or maybe a cup I spilt. But as I begin to walk in my room i realise the whole damn room is FLOODED!
The bottom rubbermaid apparently had a small crack from all the wait I had on the TIT. I had placed some stuff I had no room for on top of it. Big damn mistake. their must have been 1/2 inch of water on my room floor at 4 freaking AM. Everything I had on the floor was soaken wet! So I spent 4 hours between cleaning shit, piss, water, and then fixing the damn TIT. Crazy experience, no more placing materials on top of my TIT.

This was a big issue in growing pot but this is the first case I have seen in shroom growing.

Yeah it's as if that 4 am knock on the door to clean dog shit was a message from the mushroom gods. The tub (the amount of water i had poured in it)wasnt even half way down when i got to it so i cant even imagine what would have happened if i woke up at my usual 12:00PM schedule. It would have definately reached the living room as well as the other two rooms next to mine.
