Hi,

Has anybody had a central brace break on a Juwel Rio 300 tank ? I have
and am desperate to find out what to do, the front of the tank has bowed
but only every so slightly. If anybody can help I'd be really grateful.

Cheers

Martin

Thanks very much I have emailed them, will see what they say, so you
don't think I'm in any immediate danger of damage to the tank ?

I had this happen on a rio 400 & it bowed alarmingly - but juwel reassured
me it would be OK & it has been since I replaced the bars - but I would get
it sorted as soon as poss just to be on the safe side!

See post here 10/1/2006 - Juwel Tank struts and the follow up posts.

-------------------------------
I've just had the fright of my life.

I was sitting reading with my back to my Rio 400 (which is head height, just
behind the sofa I was sitting on), when I heard an almighty bang !

Once I'd calmed down I discovered both of the struts that go across the tank
had come away, and now the front at the top is leaning about a quarter of an
inch out.

The tank has not been moved (yet), it's not over filled (400 litres to the
fill line ), so why has it done this and what's best to put them back.
Sillicone or superglue ?

Help !

Peter
----------------------------

It would seem that Juwel have a quality problem.
