..rattling sound..?

[Ratzy]

Hi there,

Have some concerns about the electrical safety of my nano tank at the moment. Yesterday the tube from the pump disconnected itself from the outlet pipe, leaking water outside of the tank, and in fact I got a lovely little electrical shock when I lifted the lid to work out where all the water had gone..

Have since attached the tube back and to be extra sure have super-glued it on, and after switch on all seems to be working but now there appears to be a slight rattling sound coming from the tank, but have no idea where from exactly. Anybody any ideas what this might be, and am I putting my life in my own hands? Am very nervous about leaving the house unattended..

Thanks in anticipation

Well there are lights and salt water involved so do be careful. The best statement I can say that is if nothing malfunctioning then there is no concern. Sounds like *maybe* you would want to check the setup to see if any water was thrown inside the hood. For the rattle I would suggest try turning off the pump only and see if the rattle goes away. If so then the impeller may have something stuck in it. If not one by one unplug items to see where the rattle is coming from. Good luck!

BTW :welcome to Nanotank!
