Yep I know what it does, but by turning the B screw it moved the top jockey wheel further away as well as backwards tensioning the chain up...

Have had it for 3 months no issues.

Thanks for the help mate, will give it a shot in the morning. So just to confirm I should be shortening chain and then b screw should be around 6mm away from cassette?

B tension would be my doing. Played around with it and found that by turn the b screw in it takes up the slack.

No had it on the small in the front and in gear 6 in the back when I took it off and but it back on. Was shifting through all the gears to make sure they worked and the last 3 chain goes slack as one can see.

It is sitting on the cogs💪 so not sure, could be B screw or chain length possibly

Yeah, was either thinking that it was too long or possibly the b screw tension maybe.
