Oops! It was actually:

Due to the weight and construction of the metal nuts and bolts, in this case, the water level will go down. A floating object displaces its weight and a submerged object displaces its volume.

So Nar had half the answer.

pk- is the answer seeds?

Well, Grimar isn't around to beat you and neither's Nar. You may stand a chance, but it's only a matter of time till Nar comes back, glances at the riddle and solves it 2 seconds later :D .

I'll hold you to that oath. Hmm... let's see, as I started this thread, I use my powers to tell everyone to wait until pk answers this riddle and no-one is to give him any help.

Good luck, pk. :)
