Hi all, Thanks for all the recommendations- didn't get it today but am going tomorrow- tank seems to have settled and my son bought me 2 dwarf gouramis and 6 neon tetras to cheer me up ^_^ . Could cry seeing them all swimming about happily this evening, hopefully the drama is done for now...

I don't think they do but my heater is playing up- it is inside the filter cartridge with a dial at the top to adjust it. The dial is set at 16 degrees but the thermometer is showing the tank temp at 26 degrees. I am going to get a new heater today!!
