I just saw on NBC - Local 2 that Aquapod 12 gallon tanks are being recalled due to a shocking hazard. If you have one contact Aquapod to find out what to do to fix the problem.

Current USA recall
aquapod 12 gallon exchange program Important Safety Recall Information Aquapod 12 Gallon Model #7050 Product Exchange Program.
In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Current USA, Inc. is voluntarily recalling Aquapod 12 gallon aquarium systems (Model #7050) that were sold in the USA from December 2005 through January 2006. These aquariums were imported from China.The affected Aquapod aquariums could have a potential electrical risk resulting in the inability to independently operate each lamp. In the event the user plugs only one of the two power cords into an AC outlet, it may energize the remaining cord and present an electrical hazard resulting in shock. Current USA has received six consumer reports of these lighting systems not working correctly. If you have a recalled Aquapod, please stop using it and order a replacement tank or repair kit immediately. This recall only affects Model #7050 with no serial number, other models including current Models #7051 & #7052 are not affected.Current USA has initiated a domestic exchange program and will provide eligible customers with a new Aquapod 12 gallon system or an Aquapod 12-gallon Repair Kit, free of charge through their local retailer.The recalled Aquapod systems include those with no serial number. To view the serial number, open the lid and locate the serial number located on the bottom left corner of the light reflector. The serial number is printed in black numbers. Note: If your Aquapod 12 gallon system does have a serial number, you do not have to exchange it. This recall does not affect other models.Pet stores nationwide, catalogers and online retailers sold the Aquapod tanks from December 2005 to January 2006 for a suggested retail of US$240. If you have recently purchased an Aquapod, please check the outside box and locate the serial number next to the barcode. If a serial number exists, it is unaffected by this recall.Consumers should stop using the recalled Aquapod aquarium and contact their dealer for a replacement tank or repair kit. For more information, consumers should call Current USA Inc. at (866) 276-8872 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. PST Monday through Friday.
