The fish tank heater seemed to die the other day. We set the house temperature at 69 degrees for the winter and the fish tank temperature quickly followed.
Apparently over the summer, the fish tank heater had turned it self off and I never noticed because the tank was always a little warmer than it was set at.
I almost spent $35 buying a new heater but decided to kick the old one a couple times to see if it had really died. I unplugged it and plugged it back in and I turned the heat settings up and down and returned it to the 72 degrees that I normally set it at.
Amazingly, the fish tank warmed up.
So before you throw away your dead fish tank heater, you might want to fiddle with it a little bit to see if it turned it self off and just needs some help getting turned back on.
