    So far I've got 8 litres of spent tulipe, stuff that looks like gravel, and 10 "lost" pcbs from way back whenever.

    There's still one I can't shift.

    Bummer.
    I have a vision of a giant lizard scuttling around his laboratory like a mad scientist, cackling every so often.

        There we are.

        Couldn't get all the crap out of the bottom of the tank, so I refilled it.

        One pcb remained fixed in the gravel down there.

        Ho hum.

              I had to make a long tweezery thingie to reach down into the tank coz it's too narrow to get one's hands down.

              I made it out of a bit of plastic cable trunking lid.

                  I did indeed.

                  I suppose I could have stuck a hose off the tap into it, but had nowhere to put the waste water thereafter.

                  I suspect that the bubble generator thingie is blocked up too coz the ferric appears not to bubble very much.

                    I wonder what I did with the original yellow one that was knocking about.

                    I bet it got lost (or put very very safe) in the move.
