So I got 2 Vivi novas off of eBay from a random vendor for a pretty cheap price ($6.00 each) they both work pretty well besides a few gurgling issues I have had here and there (just blew the juice out of the post and refilled it) but what baffles me is if it is a fake it is performing very well suprisingly. Most other fakes are dead on arival or just taste plain nasty but this one has been working great. Now the smoke tech (fake knockoff) version has a pointed metal cap on the head with a rubber seal over it and the vision (real Vivi nova) has a flat cap on the head with a seal around it as well. But this tank... Has no metal cap on the head. It simply has a pointy rubber seal that slips over the head and when you take the drip tip off you can see the seal sticking out into the cap. It has 4 wicks and both tested out to 2.5 ohms. Is this a new version or did I just get a knockoff that actually works? Have yet to see any pics online of a vivi nova that resembles the head on this one. My last question is can I buy the legit vision heads and use it on this tank? Thanks for your help I'm baffled >.<
