Horrible!! Your tank is done for.... I'll buy everything off of you for $5 and you're robbing me blind at that price.


Sorry, there was a woot-off today and it's hard to get out of that mindset.


Like Chad said, no big deal.

actually keep an eye on it...
i don't think it can affect your tank, but one of my canopy screws has been rusting and not i can't remove it. so i'll have to cut it to take the canopy off.

so you might want to replace them before it gets to that stage.

It's no big deal but if there is enough metal left to get them out, go ahead and replace them.

And, replace them with BRASS screws.
