Friendly reminder to always check your tank!

Wrong thing to read as I'm currently in Maui and I don't return home until Sunday! I have someone watching the tank, however they wouldn't have a clue about tee equipment. I'm already scared to come back to my tank (sps corals) after this 2 week vacation.

Mine isnt too bad. I was gone for two weeks. I had a lazy tank sitter who didnt fill my ATO container on my reef. So I had a pretty huge salinity swing. But not much happened. My big bonzai colony is starting to STN and a lot of my zoas melted for some reason. And I now have a weird outbreak of bubble algae and hair algae in my frag tank.

Next time I might actually hire someone with experience.

I'm hoping I experience similar and not a coral wipeout. I'm expecting the tank to have an algae breakout etc. Just hoping nothing silly happened. I'm with you FishyFishy and will probably look for someone with saltwater experience. I had a hard enough time finding someone to feed the fish, do the top off and be trusted inside my house!

Yup! This! I guess we're left with paying a company at this point.

All this algae from two weeks....and ive never had algae issues. And my NO2 and PO4 are undetectable. No idea where it came from
