Shit Mark, that really sucks mate. I've had a couple of near misses myself with faulty heaters over the years, I'm glad I heat my whole fishroom now with the air-conditioner & don't need to rely on heaters. I hope you're able to save enough to get them breeding some replacements for you.

So sorry to read. The problem with the hobby for me is the reliance on the bits & bobs to work. We get the fish happy, the water right then bang a dodgy heater. :evil: :cry:
I have a heater set on the lowest it can go & the tank runs at 25 degrees. :roll: I am glad we are getting to the stage where the heaters are about to go off for the season.

Frenchy :D
