A few days ago, my Salvini chased my Jag into the side of the tank. It was a big hit, he hit the heater and it kind of hit the side of the tank. I checked it out, there were no problems with the fish. Though I noticed something.. off with the heater. I looked at it, figured it was nothing.

Yesterday I noticed the temperature was just above the norm, but it was also a ridiculously hot day out. So I turned down the heater and let it be.

Tonight I checked the temp again and noticed it was at 90 degrees! I looked at the back of the heater and it was all cracked inside and there was obvious problems.

It's really hot out tonight, so they should be fine until I can go down to the LFS tomorrow and pick a new heater up.

On the bright side though, I guess the salvini thought it was breeding time and brought out his full yellow self. I wish I could get my camera to not be *** as **** so I could take a good picture of him; he's gorgeous right now!

I went and sat down and tried to take some. I'm pulling them off now, hopefully it worked. Cellphone wouldn't cut it as for the color he got.
 
I'm getting sick at not being able to take good pictures.

My girlfriend got a good picture of the salvini today when I went to work:
