Exploding Heaters - Marineland Stealth and Stealth Pro (Pictures) - Recall Issued

[Palmer]

Thank's that's good to know. My cichlids are getting kind of big and I actually liked the fact it was metal. Have had it for 5 years with no problems.

Okay so I have two Stealth heaters, not the pro's...should I still be really worried?

Hi Mark. I don't think you need to worry. It's only the "pro" heaters.

My heater developed a crack down the side of it last night lucky it was in a secondary tank with nothing in it. Not sure what would have happend if I was not there. Stealth pro 200w

models are 100, 150, 200, 250, and 300 watt versions of the Stealth Pro heater line.

I am keeping mine. Hopefully they will recall them in the future.

Just a quick note, I was able to successfully exchange my 250W Stealth Pro for an equivalent at PetSmart in Bellingham no questions asked (we go to Costco for some shopping and it's right next door).

So if you don't have a receipt and cannot return it to your local LFS, your local Petsmart is stepping up to the plate and handling this situation very well.

Cheers.

Did you have to give a name and address to petsmart?
