Ignore him ^

Remove the lamp and check the seal around the back of it,a smear of vaseline around the seal might help it,if it still leaks its a new seal you need

p.s. turn the caps lock off dude.

Keep some fish in it?

New seals work wonders, old ones flatten and don't do a proper job.

I love upsetting concours entrants at Gaydon by pointing out the water in the indictors :P It's happened twice now

After spending all that time buffing you would have thought they would of spotted that! :D

I had the same problem on mine,new seals are the only way to stop it,i had a lot of water in mine enough for at least 2 fish! :wink:
