Ordered a replacement off Amazon (be here tomorrow) but that can go in Fireplace as it has an inline temp controller so I don't have to fish (no pun intended) around in the tank to adjust (I run them horizontally) and the one currently in Fireplace is the same as the one that's just barfed in Sunnyside so that can go in there as the replacement (after being sterilised just in case)

whooops a sudden realisation dawned today.
I didn't add prime to the tank when doing the 50% water change on Tuesday (have added now just in case).
Everyone seems ok though
For ref these are the Chlorine figures from United Utilities

When I was first laying down plans I did toy for (quite) sometime around having some Angels in there but the the answer at the moment is .... complicated lol.
So the current 60 Residents are :
3 Appistos
5 Sterbai Cory
5 Albino Cory
10 Bleeding Hearts
20 Rummy Nose
17 Cardinals
Will I add to that once all the current kerfuffle dies down?
Certainly want to get some more Rummys to replace the 5 I lost to ich.
We both really like the Albinos as they not only stand out but they're really fun to watch so may get some another 5 of them.
Would I consider a singleton Angel ???? Maybe
