    Are you talking about some kind of label on the heater?

    (Or some revolutionary sticker that heats the water? j/k)

    I have a couple Visa Therms around, didn't even notice a sticker on them. [smiley=anxious.gif]

    I don't think we are quite sure what you are talking about but I swear by visa-therm. I've never had any problems with them. I did buy a whisper heater once and they are covered in a black coating. What a mess that was it started peeling off and going everywhere. In fact I probably should have pulled it out and tried rubbing it off. Needless to say I won't buy one of those again.

    Might be what he was talking about. I have an Acura which I have had for years that after not using it for a few month and then using it to heat my make up water the black dots that are on it for looks to cover the heater coil from view most of them came off

    I am talking about the decals on the outside of the glass.. They are a silver color about 1/8" each and they look like the shape of a fish sort of. The entire glass is coverd with them for decoration, but they are coming off and are in my water! I think mine is the newer model that was just taken over my Marineland? I wonder if they will take it back? Its about 6 months old

    Sound like the same thing that happened to my Acura. Really not a big deal other than them floating around the tank. Wont affect performance
