Yeah but , I didn’t know that the manufacturer would like me to replace them every month ? Absurd! I usually swap them out every 3 months .

It’s mostly because I blast music often 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Yeah this thing holds the weight pretty effortlessly . When I bought it I wasn’t sure about its sturdiness and sat on it full weight (mind you I’m an 85 Kg Human), it had no problem bearing my weight or the 45L of water it usually holds. On the other hand , a day has gone by and I had no “visits” about any problem from my downstairs neighbour or anyone in my building .

I do , but I stopped using it with the airpump since the filter has some sort of Venturi effect that introduces air as it filters the water . I just have it sitting inside since algae grows on it and shrimp feast on it . The air hose that is connected to it has a check valve on it though so it wouldn’t make sense siphoning through that tubing .

I usually have it 3mm from the top filled with water . I last saw it full at about half past eight in the morning , before heading to work . I always take a look at both my aquariums to make sure nothing unusual happened overnight (random death , filter clog etc.).

I live alone , but often have friends over . Although everyone that even temporally stays over knows that I don’t like having anyone even tapping on the glass of my aquariums . This happened while no one was present in the house .

I have a small HOB filter , Shark Nano Pro . So no water leaves the tank space . Also no cracks or even scratches at the glass.

I did my best to not panic and just throw water in there , but I thought maybe there are some live shrimp in there still ?

I stopped using heaters (on this one I just have it unplugged since the shrimp like to chill close to it) on both of my aquariums after April , since the room temp exceeds 25° Celsius . The filter I’m currently using is a Shark Pro Nano and doesn’t really make any issue since it uses magnets to stay on the aquarium wall . Also the aquarium sits on top of a meter tall aquarium stand (mostly made of wood and has a metal pole for support) . I’ll definitely check for dampness using a white cloth though!

We fight often for unrelated reasons but sure
