    Anything we can do to help our yellow tang after a temperature drop?

    Overnight, something went wrong with our aquarium heaters/controllers, and the temperature of the tank must have dropped. We don't know how low, or for how long... we just woke up to the controller beeping and an error message, and only one of the heating coils working. The temp was at 76.3...

    Adrenaline Shots/FOOD for infected fish WHY NOT?!!!
