The "Cooling System" (actually a heat redistribution system) runs fluid (a mix of alcohol and water and lubricants) off the engine block and head into the heater and radiator. You probably have a broken heater hose if you have coolant running from the aquarium drains after topping up the system. If the Heater Core was leaking, you would smell a sweet aroma in the cabin as you drive, but not so sweet as you contemplate the repair cost.
