    Some people are gonna be without power for 6 more days, hoping ya'll have a generator or can borrow one, I got lucky with only 2 days without power and a friend with a generator.

    Best wishes for all your fish and corals;)

    Thanks! The storms are getting pretty rough up here. So far no power surges. Hope no one loses too much! :(

    It was pretty stormy here today for an hour or so, then it cleared up. I heard weather from Indiana should be heading this way within the week though? I sure hope that's not the case.

    I've got a 29g tank full of coral at home. No battery pump or backup generator. I'm also not there right now, and won't be for about two weeks (dad taking care of the tank)...

    Hope all is well with ya Sean, these storms have been intense, I literally watched a guy standing at about a 45 degree angle walking the other day. My town got TORE up, 15 minutes away from me won't have power till Thursday, and theres a little LFS there that may not re open due to this. I don't go there, but still sad.

    I saw some of your pics on facebook. Tree in front of your house split in half? That's bizarre. lol.

    But if this storm knocks out the electricity for more than a day or so I'll likely loose many of my corals.

    yeah it split a cedar 4X4 post in half length wise, and snapped the rest in half, Crazy. And then I had to fire a shot at some looters trying to get my generator:( Nothing worse than scum stealing during a time of crisis.

    Dad said the same storm passed over his area and everything is OK. Looks like the tank will be just fine.
