im about to kill someone

So as many of you know I live in a dormatory at the University of Tennessee. I just got back from spring break. Now the dorms I live in are without airconditioning which is fine if you leave the windows open.

I come back from spring break about half an hour ago and behold. My windows are closed and the blinds are up. It is burning up in my room.

Now for all the people with weak stomachs you might want to stop reading. I look into my tank and my toadstool coral is melted, my 2 turbos, dead and my nassuris is dead.
It was 95 degrees in my tank. I am so pissed right now I dont even know what to do.
I left with the windows open and the tank on a timer and such and I get back and they have come into my room and closed all the windows.
Luckally I took my fish to the LFS and had them hold them while I was gone. I dont even know what to do right now.

Re: im about to kill someone

Sorry to hear about what happened. 95 is just crazy. Im amazed your fish made it...

What are you going to do to drop the temp? I suggest doing a 25% water change

I would go to an RA and ask who had access to your room. Tell them they owe for criminal damage to property.

Hate to hear about your tank.
I'd go a head and do a 50% water change.Then watch your parameters for a week or so before you put your fish back in.
