I woke up to check my babys temperature ( he was at 39.9 at some point ) now he is gone down a little ... and I just can't go back to sleep , so I don't know if it's morning or night. I know we have icing rain outside and i'm scared we might loose electricity

Do you have a plan in place if you do? For both family and tank? Glad to hear the fever is coming down a bit.

I have something to say about reefs ... I am mad about a product.
yesterday I got lucky, my water topper has gone awol ...
Now my DSB has lowered salinity stress and I can't do a water change so my baby doesnt wake up

 

[anon9896]

well my family is fine, my father in law has a gas fireplace, I figure if anything I will be able to go back and forth with some heating pads for the aquarium... he lives near

Any hot hands packs and a battery airstone?

 

[anon9896]

a battery airstone, ok , you just found what is my 'not so' ridiculous gift... last power outage I just shaked the water every 2-3 hours with a stick... did that on a 24h timelapse and everything went well

 

[anon9896]

well I just read that there will be heavy rain 1/2'' + today so I guess the icing will stop ...

Sick baby and tank stress? Not good @sebaseau

Long term plans for your reef when you become a line pilot? Automated? Can your wife handle issues that arise?

 

[anon9896]

GOOD question, for the next year and a half , I will be around so that is not a problem.
In fact the reef is supposed to be hers.
When I told her that I used to be a reef fitter back in the days she wanted one so bad .
I said fine , but only a small guy we can carry around becose I don't want to move a large reef it's a royal pain.
sooooooooo basically it's hers ;Facepalm
i'ts honestly already automated except water change and food.
Food can be automated but they will only eat dry food (I already have what I need for that)
I can make large sea water batch...
change the doser bottles is easy.

she is a farming engineer coupled with medical imaging tech with a neuropsychology degree...
I'm not sure if she can handle a reef but I could show her ;Facepalm

 

[anon9896]

@Katrina71 your man can handle a reef ?

 

[Katrina71]

@Katrina71 your man can handle a reef ?

Mine? Yes, with instructions. I'm super low tech.

My husband is smart and can fix almost anything, but I solder,design, do detailed woodwork, plaster, and paint better. Notice my list is short. Lol
