The chiller is still blowing fuses mostly I think because the room gets too hot. It must have been about 90F+ in the room when I got home last night and that was at 10:45pm. I think my nano is a complete write off as it was 94.5F and stuff actually looks cooked in it. For the big tank, the chiller was still running then as my tank sitters (I was on holidays) had been diligent about checking on it and replacing fuses as needed however, the tank hit 90 on Thurs eve/Friday and then blew another fuse Friday night and it wasn't caught until Saturday afternoon. The tank is a total disaster, white colonies everywhere

As an aside, why do the ugly brown ones always survive? Not fair.

I'm currently installing the AC unit in the fish room. Wish I had done that before I left

Hi Christy

Sorry to here of your chiller problems. I am sure you have checked everything on that circuit. Once you get through this ordeal, you are welcome to have frags of any of my corals to get you started again.

You'll have to wait a year or so, but I do have a frag of Jesse's red table. It's encrusted and just starting to grow now. When it's big enough I can frag you a piece if you haven't found one by then.
