Hey Ram Puppy,

Be careful with your maintenance guys changing out filters.

Horror story: When we were renting a duplex in Pflugerville, while we were on vacation in August, the maintenance guy came by and replaced our filter on the ac unit. He shut it off to change the filter and didn't turn it back on. When we came home it was over 98 degrees in the house and everything in all of my aquariums was "cooked". Complained to the owner and he said he couldn't/wouldn't do anything about it. Turned in my 30 day notice that I was leaving and he would not return my deposit. Said I had damaged several things in the home (had been done by the prior tenant) so I lost my deposit as well. Live and learn.

Next house we rented we documented everything before we moved in and when we moved out I got all of my deposit back.

I have learned the hard way that if I am out of town, I will have someone who knows a lot about saltwater aquariums to look after my charges while I am away.
