The week I ran cable through a fishtank by accident

Customer had this huge aquarium in the living room and swore the wire path was clear. Three hours later I'm fishing a coax through the wall and hear water sloshing - turns out a pipe ran right behind the tank and I went straight through it. Has anyone else dealt with a job that turned into a plumbing repair on the side?

Man, coax through a pipe is bad enough but you probably hit a drain line not a supply pipe, those usually run behind walls near sinks. Hope the fish were okay through all that.

Wait, you put a hole in a drain pipe behind an aquarium and the water wasn't spilling out everywhere? That sounds like a mess I would've walked away from the second I heard water.
