Default Heaters

I had this happen a few years back with a Hagen heater
I contacted them straight away and they were brilliant,replaced the heater,gave me a whole host of freebies and sent me a cheque for the cost of the fish(£300)
Contact the manufacturer direct and not the point of sale

Default Dead fish...

That happened to me, I bought some fish and after a day, my step-dad awoke to find one of my fish floating. So he went out to buy another one. He came back with the other fish, but the fish in the tank was now floating too. This was because we didn't have a filter. So now, we have bought yet again more fish and a filter but the fish have lasted over a month so far.

We used to have 3 large Lion fish which we had owned for 2 years. My OH was doing maintenance in the tank and managed to stir up the bottom. Within half an hour they were all dead even though he tried all kinds to save them It was really upsetting as they were so tame, I was gutted
