Hi i was given a good deal so i thought through a local aquarium store i frequent a few months ago. A friend of mine who works there told me that they were going to have a deal where if you brought in your old whisper filters you could trade straight up for new aqueon filters. I was told i could trade in two of mine,so i brought in my whisper for my 20 gallon and my whisper for my ten gallon and traded up for a 30 gallon aqueon and 20 gallon aqueon filter. When i got them home i put them on the aquarium,they are outside filters and have a 4 system to take care of the water and i was pleased with how well they worked and how clear my water had gotten,but then i discovered that my hoods were off by 1/4 of an inch and I really didn't pay attention to this till a few months later when i discovered it,so i put towels over the backs of the filters to keep smoke and other stuff out,which worked fine.
I went back to the shop where i got them from and they told me no one else had this problem and i said surely i'm not the only one with this problem and they wouldn't do anything about it,so i wrote aqueon last wee about it and they have yet to reply. I'm calling them monday.
Has anyone else had this problem of their hoods not fitting right after putting them on their aqauriums?
Oh and these are two older aquariums about 10 to 20 years old. Sure would like an answer to this problem as i have already cut the back of my hoods as far as they will go. I've also been in the business with fish for over 40 years,so i'm no dummy lol. Anyw reply sure would help,i hope.
