Hi all,
The good lady and I have just been out and bought a small fish tank for our kitchen, We've got a proper tank in the lounge, but wanted to run a smaller tank for a couple of goldfish.
In our infinite wisdom we ended up buying a Fluval Chi fish tank from our local store. It was ex-display and only set us back £25. Hurrah, thought I.
The only problem with it, is that it didn't come with a power supply. The bloke in the shop told us that it would only cost us "£6 or so online", however I haven't the foggiest what we're actually looking for.
The end of the cable has a plug on it which would presumably have run into the transformer. It says 12V/AC 400mA 4.8VA on it, and I think it's a 2.1mm plug, but I'm not really sure.
I've found a replacement power supply on the official site (http://uk.hagen.com/Aquatic/Replacement-Parts/A13950), but was just wondering if you guys could recommend an alternative for "£6 or so online"!
Thanks in advance guys!
