Just fueled up the hedge trimmer and did the edges of my lawn. When I finished, looked back and a trail of petrol was everywhere!!! The cap wasnt on properly and fuel leaked out, the worse thing is some ended up in one of the FT's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I dont know how much but I can see the oily residue on top and it smells like petrol!!!!


OH MY GOD!!!

hahahaha... Environmental disaster on a small scale, I can see the headlines.... Fuel spill in Kalgoorlie kills dozens of fish....

Perhaps super absorbent material of some sort..... :wink:

Can you get the fish out into another tank.... then dump the water... and triple rinse the tank??

I'd definitely stop pumping it through the grow beds... immediately...
