    Default A.C. turned off

    My fiance turned of my a.c. this weekend and i came home to a 94 degree tank. Probably hotter than that when the lights were on. My new frogspawn is dead I think. My elegance coral looks crapy and so does my gonipora. Every thing has retracted. Is there anything I can do to releive some stress or help them out. My tank usually stays right at 80-82. I put some ice in right when i got home don't know if this was a good idea because of chlorine from the water that makes my ice

    That suck, my last roommates kept turning the AC off. After six month, I finally had enough and taped the to the on position. You should explain to her to not turn the AC off. If you're leaving the house, then leave the AC on at 80F. If you have room, you should invest in a chiller as a back-up. In case she forgot and turn the AC off again, or your AC broke down while you're away.

    So how's your tank going? Your fiance seems pretty sweet, I'm sure she didn't do it on purpose to screw you over.

    I lost a few corals but most of them came back. she would never do that on purpose she knows how much my tank means to me.
    Henry I'm glad the corals are all doing well. Make sure to post some pics of your new tank. I'm sure we would all love to see it
