Don't tempt fate! Actually, I think I've seen your stand on another thread, I think you have nothing to worry about. I haven't had any "reef" dreams yet. I spend enough waking time thinking about it already

I've had a 10 gallon back when i was a lil kid(yah, they had tanks then ) blow out , and that was enuf for me.
My 180 is way old, made one house move , and to look at the stand you would wonder how it holds up anything let alone 180 g's of water.
I wonder the "what if's" all the time, and tried to use it to my advantage, like getting a new tank, and move both tanks downstairs .So far all i have is a 200 tank in the garage (plans are to upsize the 75 reef to that) and get a larger tank(250'ish +) to replace the 180.

I've thought about a tank letting go long enuf that it would prob not upset me that much, since i ran it thru my mind so many times.

Actual dreams about the subject? Can't say i have

lol.. I had a dream that my tank will fall through the floor of my appartment. I live on the third floor, would be insane if it falls through the floor into an appartment below me. More of a nightmare actually, I sure hope thats not gonna happen..

Oh ya, I had 2 dreams about my tank this week. Can't remember them, but they helped me solve some problems. Sometimes they're not fun, though.

I wouldn't even say that. I made a comment early last week about how it was gonna be an easy week since it was short and after a holiday. I ended up, on 3 hours notice, out of state for 3 days and working very long days while there.

not a dream, but i had a seam let go on my old 55, forcing a quick setup on the 75 I had been working on putting up.
I never had problems with a U tube overflow, they are not problematic is setup right
