Thanks Brad, ya the chromes came to me as an adult 5 years ago.. So it was just his time.. He had really slowed down the last month, it was expected. I hope the tangs do well for you.. They really are awesome fish was the closest smilie I could find for a sad smile.

Shelley, the tangs are doing great. The yellow was on his side in the bucket, but quickly came back when I agitated the water. Right now he is "tolerating" my yellow chasing him, which is funny, mine is 20% smaller and having no effect.
The corals are still getting unpacked, but I tell ya, I may throw some of mine out to make room

Sorry to hear that Shelley, I hope things get sorted out for you quickly. No time is convenient for something like that but we are all even busier at Christmas. Good luck with everything.

Thanks everyone.. It does kinda make it better.

The mess is now mostly cleaned up, we kinda made the sump into a tank by overfilling it and t'ing off the pump so it sucks from the middle and returns on both chambers on the ends. I can keep my mushrooms and zoas in there under some cheap t5s strips I have..they won't prosper but they will live.

I have one bin of rock with attached zoas to put away, then tomorrow I I'll try and rearrange the frag tank so stuff thrown in there will be ok for a While.

I have a couple hundred pounds of rock sitting on my deck.. At least it stinks out there and not in here!

We lucked out in as far as the water didn't damage the suite down below us. our carpet is drying out nicely, but is kinda stiff and salty lol

If you don't have insurance BUY some you never know how crap can happen in an instant.
