Correct RBA for my EU baby tank

doggystyle said:
When I look at my tank I can barely see the wicking ports which are clearly visible in your pictures
Meaning my rba sits a lot lower into the base than yours

Try taking the tank off the mod and then screwing the rba into the base allowing the rba to push the 510 pin further out of the base of the tank

It seems I have screwed the base of the tank to the mod too tight and I now cant get it off. My friend is going to 3D print a tank screw tool and bring it in to work for me tomorrow, so I will have to get back to you.

It seems the thread is very shallow though and I need to lose 3mm length on the RBA to make the glass I have (22mm) fit, so doesn't seem it will work.

Try using a Marigold or latex glove to help grip the base of the tank and twist it back off counter clockwise. Remove the top and glass first so you don't break them by accident.

Always worth keeping some in a drawer somewhere. Amazingly handy for removing things when they get stuck.

Alternatively, insert a small screwdriver into the airflow vent for leverage. Grip the base and screwdriver and turn.

Aha! You are a genius! That worked, the glass still doesnt fit though...

Unfortunatley the glass from amazon that should work is out of stock, so I amwaiting on it to come back in.
