Came home to 100.2 tank temps lost thousands in livestock :( thanks to the people that are holding the rest of the corals till i get this worked out! saddest part about it...............lost a "pink *******" chalice about 7in around :(
 
Im sorry to here about that. Cant help to much from down here but if you can think of anything let me know. Best of luck getting it all back in order.
 
Very sorry to hear this. :( Was your heater on a controller? Just asking to help others prevent the same thing from happening.

It was, this is the second time in two years this has happend iv checked everything just faulty equipment :( well back to the chopping block to see what im doing next
 
i'm soo sorry to hear that..... that really bites!

good luck with the tank......
 
Every tank owners worst nightmare....that sucks. What size heater did you have? I'm just wondering because I have always bought a heater rated way too small for the tank and then just put in 2 instead of one. Even if there is a malfunction it can't get the tank temp that high by itself.
 
ill have to dig em out, i have em listed on a few websites but dl'ed em from my photobucket
