Wow, a near crash really causes a mess. I have FINALLY turned the corner in recovery I hope. It at least gave me a chance to redo some things. Here are some pics from tonight:

You know, its some sort of tort from ORA... I can't remember what they are all called.

Thanks though... I just hate that I lost some of my favorite corals.

Was discouraging, but nice when it starts to fall back in place
 
to make sure I got the story right, you were without power for a while right? It is discouraging to lose stuff, I lost seven fish in about a week when I first started... really put a damper on things

Well, first of all I'm VERY THANKFUL my biggest loss was corals! Folks only a few miles from here lost literally everything in the tornados. In certain areas it looked like atom bombs had gone off.

That being said yes... I was without power for 5 days.

I ran a generator during the day, but m family and I stayed out of town at night since we have small children. I had to lock up the gen at night:eek:

I also have a vortech backup, but it is only good for so much.

After the first night I had los a tang and my cyano problem got really bad w such little flow.

The next day RTN set in on a few colonies so I started fragging what I could....mostly to no avail.

Finally my power kicked back on and I hit the water changes and whatever else I could do. After loosing 4 or 5 colonies I think the decent is over.

Time to get things back to show shape;) I guess I leaves me room to pick up some really nice corals and gives them room to grow.

A big generator for the house is hopefullyin my future;)
 
glad to see that you hung in there alot of people would have been so sick they would have let it go. Way to hang in there and your tank still looks better than mine
 
U know this is the second time I've started dosing prodibio and my cyano disappeared.
