Thank goodness everything is okay. Damn kid....lol

Exactly the same thing just happened to me. The missus turned the heating off when she was tidying the house and we went away for the night. Came home and the house was really cold and the tank was 74°.

Thankfully it warmed up Thursday night I defently dodged another tempture bullet a few more degrees lower could have crashed the tank :eek:

I thought I would bump my thread being that my tank is turning two ! I am very lucky to report that I have managed to stop a RTN bleaching from the bottom up outbreak. I first noticed some bleaching on the base of a acro about a month and a half ago . I have experienced this before and lost a few big colonies so I acted fast cutting off the dead tissue fraging and re mounting the acro .

I would have been great if it stopped with one coral but the RTN seamed to jump from coral to coral bleaching about eight sps over a period of about a month. My parameters all seamed to be in good order , the one thing I did notice was by bio-pellets were clumping a little bit so I took them off line as well as my gfo just in case and have been running carbon only for the past few weeks .

The good news is all the sps survived the RTN event some are just a little stubby now :lol:

Hear is a photo of my tank august 2013.

Well I should have knocked on wood or not posted that last post. I was sure I beat this dam STN but low and behold I have found two more Frags STNing 😬. I guess I was just being to dam cocky posting pictures of my tank live and learn I guess . Hmm back to step one wait and see. Fingers crossed or maybe I need a prayer recator.

Sorry to hear about the troubles. Your tank still looks pretty amazing to me Ian!

Thanks Warren ! I'am hoping I get it under control soon . I didn't find
Any corals STNing today so it's wait and see here on out . Any corals that show any STN will be removed from my tank immediately.

Kessil vrs 250w mh
 

I was bored on the weekend and I was thinking about the good old day when I would run 500w of MH for 9 hours day. So I started to think to myself and then I was convinced that I had better colour when I was running my phoenix 250 watt 14k. So I thought I would do a side by side comparison to my a360we.
I was totally surprised that when I tunded the the kessil to 70% colour I could not see any or very little difference at all. I am sure the die hards will disagree but I here is a my photo. Sorry for the low quality but you get the idea :lol:

Wow that's looking awesome! Love those mature colonies. Did you ever pick up a prayer reactor?

Thanks !!! I did pick up a prayer reactor but the prayers were clumping so I am now dossing liquid prayers. :mrgreen:
