KittenFishMom Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I'm trying to clean my ACO heater that was in the tank with the leeches. It have a lot of ramshorn snails in it. I have been scrubbing it with a nail brush and running water through it from different angles and shaking it to try to get the shells out. There are still shells in that that rattle when I shaking it. I would love any advice on how to get the shells out before I soak it in peroxide. I don't want to void the warranty, but I am worried that the shells might contain leech eggs. I wrote to customer service at ACO, but they didn't have any experience with this problem. Any suggestions would be very welcome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nabokovfan87 Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Best I can think of is trying a toothbrush. What a hassle! I don't believe there is an easy way to unsnap (nor should you) the black protective housing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
