Default I hate heaters...
Last week I find a Fu Manchu lion... This week my stand arrives... After much work, finally move stock over last night...

And this morning I awake to find my won bro's heater stuck overnight - 96 degrees in tank. Poor guys didn't stand a chance...

I need a beer

At least the residents were few, and didn't suffer long.

Andy

Fu came from golds...

Yep, from the CAS/Christian order - got 12 of them running in various tanks / prep barrels, until now no complaints. Not sure what happened with this one - heater light wasn't on when I walked by the tank and felt the heat eminating, but the heater itself was definitely on. I'm hoping it was something stupid like I splashed water on the thermostat while I was moving everything over...

I feel your pain, we've all had the bumb wrap at one time or another. Will you pursue compensation from the manufacturer?

Welcome to the brokin heater club, I know what your going though. I figured I lost 3000.00 worth of stock when mine went, but it will grow back from the frags I now have.
