Do you have a Tractor Supply nearby? I would think they should have a tub. The couple I have came from a local feed store.

We do..I didn’t even think about them.I need to try there tomorrow. Home Depot and Lowe’s really didn’t have anything big enough.

Red Sea contacted me this afternoon and said they will replace the tank :) I do have 2 brute cans if push comes to shove. Hoping nothing happens before I get the new tank;Woot

@Dolelo96 not the news anyone wants! I hope Red Sea makes it right.

They did! Amanda contacted me this afternoon. I wasn’t sure they would..tank is 3 years old this past July.

Not looking forward to that, but it may be a blessing in disguise. Tank is being overrun with vermetid snails. While I was gone they decided to go to town on my AOIs. Needless to say, the zoas are not looking too good. Between the snails and the UPS AND DOWNS my tank suffered while I was gone, I don’t think any will survive. I haven’t decided which direction to take. They really got out of hand and it’s going to be impossible for me to get them off all the rock, but trying to get the encrusted corals off live rock doesn’t sound great either
:(

Whenever you feel sad...

It helps to picture that somewhere in this world, there’s a fool pulling on a door that says “PUSH”!

The original graphic I posted a few days ago made no mention of the 971 heavy duty supply structures that were destroyed or badly damaged. These structures combine to bring power to our area via nine different routes. None if them are currently operable. This is in addition to all of the other distribution system damage in town (poles, wires, transformers and 87 substations). It is being called a rebuilding of the power grid, not a restoration. Lots of hard working linemen in our area. Some having to drive three hours one way to get to work and others are just sleeping in their trucks. They are truly our heroes. The conditions, especially in the southernmost Cameron Parish are horrendous. To include poisonous snakes everywhere.
