flatfish Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 I have an Aquaone AR850 and water keeps on building up in the light hood. Its a pain unscrewing it and emptying out the water. Has anyone had problems like this before? Just wondering how I can fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.PROPHECY Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 could drill a hole in clear plastic so water drains itself all sounds a bit dogy tho, can you return it and get a new hood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately had it a couple of years so might not be able to get a new hood. Might drill a small in corner and get a plug for it. Not ideal but it should work.

nicmack Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 I get some but it seems to go away on its own after a while - condensation?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simian Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Drill a hole in the top, if it is condensation, it will equalise the pressure an u wont get buildup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatfish Posted October 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 thanks guys. yeah its definitely condensation. I dont use much in the way of lighting as the plecos dont light strong light. Maybe thats not helping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
