Had my first Toto leak today. It was from the tank to bowl bolts, must have been thinking about something else during assembly.

I was in shock actually. Do you guys ever get so comfortable plumbing that when you do have a leak it's almost unbelievable? :p

I thought for sure it must have been from my water bottle. :D

It has been discussed numerous times on this forum that it is advisable to take a piece of emery cloth or just plain sandpaper and give the areas around the bolt holes in the bottom of the tank a quick sanding to remove possible rough spots from the casting. It's not too late to do that now, you'll just have to dry the tank out.
