Zoltan, all I can say is that I have had the same  experience here with a few
tanks.  I keep meaning to cut one open and see  what is occurring but have
not had the SPARE time to do so.  Maybe soon in  my next life !  Anyone else cut
one open and can explain what's happening  inside to cause the blocking
????????
