Wow, what a weekend.
Let me start by saying hi to all you here.
I have been lurking for a couple of weeks and decided to start a tank thread.
I currently have a 37g
FOWLR tank that is in disarray (more on that later). I have about 2 years experience with reef systems.
So I spent the weekend in San Francisco moving my sister. Right before we left, the A/C in my house died. The repair man is scheduled to be there today, but I hoped that my tank would survive a couple of days. There has been a terrible heat wave here in Sothern California this week, with outside temps reaching into the 110’s+.
In SF, my sister gave us her very nice, 1 year old sofa and bookshelf.
On the drive home, my wife and I started to mentally re-arrange our living room. We came up with a scheme and also agreed that we now have a nice space for a 48” 60g tank.
So we get back into town on Monday and find out that in addition to the heat wave, there were multiple power outs in So Cali, including at our house. The result – we lost our Coral Beauty and our psudochomis. Hard to take when we were so excited about transferring our fish to a larger home only to discover that they did not survive the heat.
In any case, as the title of my thread suggests, we have purchased a new tank and the 2 remaining inhabitants of my 37g, a yellowtail damsel and a percula will have a new home by the end of the week.
I will post equipment specs and pics of the old and new tank later.
John
