fishgirl53 Posted January 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Hi yes you can see the scratches I can't stand looking at it so my son bought the tank from me cheap I still have the cabinet and am in the process of buying another Aqua one AR980 or the Aqua one AR 980T which is 30LTRS more still trying to make up my mind but thank you all for your replies much appreciated and yes a very expensive lesson learnt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEKA Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 It was probably not so much the scrubber that was at fault but some sand or grid which got into it. Same problem would occur with any pad unless you are very careful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
