Re: Putter's first tank
Wow that sucks Putter. Sorry to hear that. Do you know what caused the overheating? I'm sorry to hear about your losses. I hope you get back on your feet soon.

Re: Putter's first tank
The overheating was simply because I forgot to turn the AC on before I left for the week, I have no chiller on the tank at all so I count on the homes AC system to keep the tank cool. The fish sitter heard the alarm, but the alarm is not constent, so he would hear it when comming into the house to feed or at some point during, it would then stop. He didn't realize then that the temp could not go that high. He knows now what the alarm is all about and how to turn the AC on in the house and what the temp of the tank should be at to stay safe.

Re: Putter's first tank
sorry for the lack of posts, been a busy summer thus far for me. Now that I have a few moments, here is a short post. I HATE my coral beauty!!! lol I know I was taking a chance when I put him in the tank, and he was so good for soooo long but alass, he has turned into a coral muncher!!! I have a trap ordered and he is going to become part of the sump works!! that is until I can find a home for him. At least I hope I can find a home for him. Other than the CB eating the corals in my tank all else seems to be going well, lotsa purple coraline showing up, all the other critters seem to be doing fine. Will try to keep the posts up now, but summer is not over yet and there are many things that need to be accomplished yet before winter arrives. later folks.

Re: Putter's first tank
Well a couple months have past and you sound in a much better mood. Wish I was closer I'd send you a few things. used to fish Dog Lake and I know by the end of August at times it would snow. So your running out of summer, keep busy.
