    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    WOW, I hope the damage is not too bad. What a bummer, but you get your tank back after all.

    Well guys she called me last night at like 3 in the morning and said she researched how to do the right way of doing a water change. ha Anyways she stayed up last night and slowly got it back to 1.026 and my Ph is back to 8.4. That's the greatest news of the day! ;D ;D ;D Man I went from suicide watch to winning the gold medal. hahaha
    She said that only my blenny seems to be having a bit of trouble, but he is still eating. He is swimming fine just breathing a little heavy. All the corals are open and what not. Even my touchy Green Acro.
    My mom always comes through. Can't say anything bad about her. Great person to care for my fish and corals like that. After all She is the one that bought me my first freshwater tank as a gift.

    Thanks everybody for the concern. It's for out of the red zone now. ;D ;D ;D ;D I am going home to get it. ;) ha

    Thanks. I am pretty happy about my scape now.

    Yup the big 2"er. I should have gone smaller, but my fish love to live inside them.

    Good to hear your mom got everything cleared up. Sounds like you still need to go pick that bad boy up though! I have a feeling that betta just isn't doing you justice.. haha

    My boy blue does work though. hahaha He actually is a pretty cool betta, but you are correct pretty boring compared to my reef.

    O yeah, I will be making the trip to get the tank this weekend.

    Hello everybody. I haven't been on here in what seems like ages. Glad to be back. :)
    Finally made the trip back home from OSU and my tank is still running. It's doing better than it was. I only lost my acropora. It could have been much worse. O and a mushroom, it some how got knocked off the rock. It disappeared into the pistol shrimp lair.
    In other news, I picked up new corals on my way home. Got a huge rock covered in what I do not know (help me ID it) and a toad stool leather. I paid 35 dollars for all of it, which I thought was a steal. I will try to get pics up within the hour or a little after.
