Hi guys,
I've just rescaped a new layout and after it had been running for a few hours I noticed the level in the tank had dropped and my carpet was a bit wet. Much to my horror one of the taps on my eheim external was leaking water so I had to turn everything off and stop the filter. I've tried to crib something together without the tap but it's still leaking.
I managed to order one from ebay which hopefully will arrive this week, but in the meantime what do you think I should do? Just keep doing daily water changes until the part arrives? Or put in a small internal filter so at least the water is turning over?
The tank has been setup for a matter of hours so you guys will know I'm using aquasoil and a lot of plants which weren't cheap. I don't want to do them more damage than I can possibly avoid.
