What to do when it all goes wrong: Do you have a plan for emergencies?
The heater quit in the winter, temperature is rising in the summer, power outage, plumbing leak, tank leak, storm coming, sick fish – this is just a small list of all the things that can go wrong in a reef tank. While you can’t be prepared for everything, if you can be prepared for at least 80% of the things that are thrown at you, then you are far better off to react to the remaining issues. Do you have a plan for emergencies? Is it written down, kept in your head, or are you just planning to react when the time comes? If you don’t have any plan and aren’t sure, then you can let us know that too. Please share your thoughts about planning for reef tank emergencies as well as any tips or experience.
