I'm so sorry for that mistake. I'm pretty embarrassed now so I'll go stick my head back in the sand.:redface:

Thanks for the welcome all the same.

lol no worries, welcome to canreef.

anyways i have been getting temperature fluctuation for a about 3 days now and couldn't figure out why. it was fluctuating between 28-31 degrees celcius which really hot. well i found the culpret last night it was the new power head i bought (never buy the odyssea power head thier cheap for a reason) as soon as i took it out and replaced it with a koralia 1 less flow the temperature drastically changed down to the 26 degrees celcius range.

Looking good riceboy!

I will be looking for the updated pics as they come. The zoas opened up real nice I see!

thanks Jeff, i will be posting more pics once everything is happy, (once the temperature is down and stays cool) could invest in a better camera to, there are limitations to the iphone lol

Thanks riceboy.:smile:

well i guess fate has done it again my tank once again crashed from excess heat.:cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:

i went home for lunch today and found my tank at 34 degree celcius..

i found the cause of the heat increase was that a piece of rubble had fallen into my power head and the spindle wouldn't spin, therefore sky rocketing my tempurature..


looks like i'm back at square 1 again:sad::sad::sad::sad::sad::sad:

That sucks! Hopefully everything works out this time. Did anything survive?

riceboy 02-16-2010 11:05 PM

If the zoa you got from me died as a resul of this let me know and I will donate another one to you.

Just let me know when you want to stop by

Jeff
