yup so did I, two 250 watt heaters on a system with 150 gal of water, but it happened when I had the corals in a temp tank as I was removing the sand bed from my main tank. so one 250 watt heater in a 75 gal tank.

Thanks for the comments! The tank has been running here for 2 1/2 years now, and I'm finally at a point where I'm fairly happy with it! When I move it into the new tank and glue all the corals down again then I should be quite happy!

Leah, that is actually a Melanarus Wrasse! He is very blue. He was a she until about 3 weeks ago he started changing into male, and turned this lovely blue color. I will try to get a close up pic of him. His fins are almost as blue as a Mandarin's fins.

Glad to see the tank is looking up for you Mindy. From the FTS you would never know you were having issues recently.
