Sat in the lounge minding my own business, as you do, and I could hear 'drip drip drip' from the area of the fish tank, thought it must be the air bubbles doing funny things. The problem is we cannot move the tank or see behind it, anyway crawling around with torches sure enough the tank is leaking; it's only 15 months old!!............

Fortunately we still had the old tank in the garage, so emptying one into the other, Miss Vamps going all girly when a fish jumped out of the bucket............ :D :D

Anyway, one empty tank, still cannot move it, need to get all the gravel out and a temporary tank on the dining table..............this I did not need..................  :( :( :(

Under-steer is when the front of the car hits the wall, and over-steer is when the rear of the car hits the wall.
Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.

Still in warranty?

I'm guessing that a substantial tank costs a pretty penny. :-\

No, only 12 months..... :-X  Going to be in for some fun, as the whole thing is likely to be an Insurance job......

Phoned the company we bought if from, he said he would speak to his boss and get back to me. Phoned me back, only a 12 month warranty, he had spoken the manufacturer who had said had I registered online it would have been 24 months. I then asked if he thought they were on facebook? he quickly gave me the phone number of the manufacturer.... ;) ;)

Yet to ring as today I have emptied the unit it is on, this is damaged from the water, tank dried out and fully empty but not been able to move it, to then move the unit to see full extent of damage; it's a bugger when your kids leave home!......... ::) ::)
