well i know why and its because i dont have two timers for my lights....
last night i stayed out and at around 6 i called my mother to ask her the favour of turning off my metal halide.... welll after a VERY LARGE miscommunication we thought the situation was under control.. in reality she turned off my actinic lights and fans, rather than my metal halide and fans... mind you the halides are not on a timers so they must be turned off by hand. well i fell asleep and she had tried to call when at 830 the lights were still on... this morning i came home to an 85 degree tank [amazed it wasnt higher] a deader than dead maze coral and an entire tank of shocked corals. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME! FML im getting another dam timer.....
OH also the heater that i put in with the live rock i purchased is busted today... filled with water [yes its a fully submersible one (aqueon)] and the water "bit" me when i touched it which means there was a substantial amount of stray voltage in there... as of now i can not tell if it was zapped and became dead rock... all in all this morning sucks.
