How do I remove uth?

So I've been wondering why my baby retic hasn't been so active. It turns out that the uth is not even working! How can I remove it so that I can put a new one on?

Ahh screw it. You need to find a group of midget wrestlers to come over and tear it off with their teeth. Lol
Just kidding. Grab a corner and peel it off BUT don't bend it past 45 degrees or you may damage it. Use foil tape when putting it on anothe viv.

Re: How do I remove uth?

No no no, you have it all wrong, don't ask a friend, ask Mom.
You remember back in the day when plasters were pulled firm and fast, she has the technique....

Seriously though, you may need to use an adhesive solvent of some sort. Assuming this is on a glass tank? Benzine, turpentine, mom's nail polish remover, best to check a hardware store.

I would however dice it up, creating smaller squares to work with.
Remember to unplug from socket.

Use a heat gun to soften the glue and peel it off using vice grips clamped on it.
