    Got a letter in the mail about a recall on Marinelands glassless heaters. I exchanged it as soon as I got the letter but it didnt say what was wrong with them. Wondering if anyone knows why they were recalled and why it appears theyve been taken off shelves?

    There were problems with a few of the lot numbers exploding, so they were all recalled to be on the safe side.

    I never recieved a letter for mine, would I be able to exchange it at the store or do you have to mail it in?

    Last I heard, most Petsmarts were taking them back.
