  • Dropped screw

    I dropped a screw from the light cover into the bottom part of the second compartment of a biocube 29. is there access to this area. How bad is a corroding screw? Cant be great

      Its silver and from the light cover. Hope its not toxic. Can that grate under the wet dry area be lifted? Feels permanent. Could break through . Dont use it for wet dry anyway

          Check to see if the similar screws are magnetic. If it is use a magnetic pickup tool to go between the grates?
