Lights were left on to try and keep heat in the garage when we had that really,really cold couple of weeks and I was concerned that the tank heaters might not cope. Phoszorb might be worth looking into, thanks guys.

Mostly my Ambulia but also crypts and swords.My own fault really as I left my lights on 24/7 for a few weeks during the cold snap earlier in the year.

Hi Stella, we are having an exec meeting on the 15 Nov if you can persuade someone heading back through Palmy I will gather lots of pumice for you and pass it on to the lucky person. :lol: Also remember if you boil pumice it will sink. (someone on the forum told me that)

It is most probably air. If you pump plunger slowly it should come right, if not then prepare your lips and lungs for a mouth full of fishy water YUCK! If it is rattling then the impeller is unseated and needs to be removed and reseated.
