Tough would imply a full understanding of the situation.
So if people don't agree with you, it's because they don't understand, not because there might be room for multiple opinions on a subject?

Let`s keep in mind the OP`s parlous health. Desperate circumstances may result in desperate ideas, ill health can affect thinking.
Dumping the tank in the water is not a great idea but sometimes people do bad things to get by. Maybe a used holding tank is not tempting to a recycler. Better to find somewhere onshore for it,somehow.
. How is it better to dump it in the landfill than it would be to properly sink it in deep water where it will become habitat?

Dont always assume a general comment involves your posts. But also generically, it is almost impossible in thesevthreads to have a total understanding of all viewpoints and possibilities by their nature.
For everone else...
Anything underwater actually weighs less. If it has some holes in it, the chances of it silting in and settling in one spot are possible too.
I did say if done right which includes selecting a site that if id did roll, it wouldnr be counterproductive to providing habitat.
I'm not assuming whose posts it involves or doesn't. Just that intelligent, well informed people can disagree with you and that you don't have the market cornered on understanding.

No, I dont have the market cornered on understanding.
But there are obvious examples of posters that arent disagreeing based on sound, logical principles the vast majority of the time and I am not the only one pointing those posters out on a regular basis.
................And, when will the new tank come from and cost??
They disagree based on opinions which are not always sound or logical to other people. There are many who post here with statements they think are well thought out and I believe are not logical or don't make sense, but that doesn't mean they should be chastised over posting their opinions. The only aspect of this thread I disagree with is the name calling and that didn't involve me on either side.
Neither you nor I get to decide what is sound or logical.
I don't advocate dumping junk anywhere and I don't preach preach to others either. Time to get off your soap box.
I'm on a mooring ball with no access to a dock or $ to for access or disposal. And NO I'm not accustomed to disposing of trash overboard. I personally think dumping this tank, which will rust away to nothing, will be less harmfull to the environment then paying somebody to bury it in a landfill... and much easier. Obviously you disagree...

Sickness and poverty entitle you to some sympathy and help, and maybe even some kind words and good wishes. They do NOT entitle you to break the law, or exempt you from your moral obligation to protect the seas and the planet.
I can't afford a new iphone, so it is OK if I steal one from someone ?
I sprained my ankle and its really inconvenient to walk to the dumpter..can I just throw my trash out of my apartment window...maybe just the paper goods since they'll break down quickly ?
If you really thought it was OK to dump it, you woulnd't have asked the forum.
In 2 minutes of googling I found 4 scrap metal dealers/recyclers located on Marathon.
I'm sorry your finances and health aren't great. I hope they improve. Now go do the right thing.
