Hmm how successful do you need? My tank isn't anything too special but I have a 40 gallon IM without a sump that I keep as a mixed reef. I've had some problems with it but it's currently doing well. It's not a super advanced system but it makes me happy. I can take a pic after maintenance today...

Hi, so I goofed. I let my ATO chamber run dry during the heat wave, and then when I filled it up, the pump failed in the on position o_O. Luckily I was around and caught it before anything too bad happened, so no disaster. But I assume I need to buy a new pump? No way to just fix it? I have...

Update, I found where she hid my betta fish's food (in a canister). I can tell this new cat is trouble.

My cat is guilty of stealing a bag of reef roids, dragging them across the house and under a bed, and ripping it apart from the bottom. Coral food went flying. No real moral here, just thought you all might find it funny

...yeah I go in with a bucket like every time! I'm a regular who buys water every other week. There's always gotta be someone ruining a good thing

Everyone is looking good! No doubt they were stressed a bit yesterday but I've been keeping a close eye on them and bringing the temp back up. Fish, inverts, and corals all acting normal. However the work is likely to fail inspection and the power will need to be cut off again, so I'm going to...

The situation is resolved, thanks! I'm ramping up the temp slowly rather than all at once

So it's not pge, it's like the world's worst contractors. Unfortunately I can't leave the house with these guys here.

Hi, my power has been out for about six hours now, and I'm starting to be worried. I have one portable airstone on each tank (two 40 gallons) but that's all the backup I have. Is there anything special I should do when the power comes back on? Or in the meantime? Waters at about 73 (I normally...

Wow, looks super cool. But have you considered stocking it with 10,000 saltwater mollies? Lol I'll show myself out

Oh no this is nightmare fuel. @psidriven i will be around in Oakland tonight, let me know if a spare set of hands would help (you can just text me so i see it) I also have a ton of buckets I can contribute to the cause if that helps

I can do setup and registration!

Two moves if you count both tanks!! Thanks team!!

Aw that's so sad. And I thought it was wild what people will bring to Oakland Animal Services...

I think we're set for Monday morning, thanks everyone!
