Forgot to plug in my Eheim 1250 pump today on my 2900s loop after trying out a 3870x2, it got hot one of the hose blew off one of the cards and got everything wet. I heard it when it happened and ran and unplugged it. It was in the process of rebooting when I jerked the chord from the power supply. I got everything apart and drying, been using a hair drier also. I will put it back together tomorrow and see what happens...
damn... u mean the water got so hot that the hose blew off?
then it must have been boiling hot. hope ur card is not dead.

Yes it got that hot, it smelled like a hot car after a radiator hose bust. I have a brand new DDC w/petras top but did not use it on the loop for fear of it failing and burning the cards up. I think I will use it next time...Originally Posted by MadDias
