Did you get an oddly shaped yellow coloured cleaning-plug with your H3i?
It allows you to plug up the holes and give your cleaning solution (insert favourite receipe here) a really good shake up in the tank, which for me leave it sparkling clean!
Cheers,
Bill

Obviously living in Las Vegas-I can't live without my humidifier. Gets filled with distilled nightly and it is dry every morning(after 6-7 hours/sleep) I do have the heat turned up to the max since I switched over to the F/P Oracle in July. Yea,a gallon of distilled(less than a buck) lasts me a couple of weeks. The 2 times that I used Vegas tap water I noticed the humidifier felt slimy in the morning. Now I always have at least 2 gallons of distilled on hand.
