Hi guys.
I just noticed that my old glass heater cracked somehow. A lot of corrosion developed over the last day or two since water started slowly leaking in. When I tried to further examine it, the bottom piece of glass full of water and suspended corroded material fell out. White colored chunks (reminded me of batteries) fell into my tank with my filter on and got all over the place. The heater smells like a burned-out lightbulb. Nothing seems to be reacting to it, and I had just performed a 50% water change 15 mins ago and don't think the fish /shrimp would be ready for another.
Has anyone had this happen? Or know what metal could be corroding? I put some carbon in the filter, but I'll need to wait till later tonight for more water changes.
