everyones tanks OK?

Powers been going out all over. We've been lucky up here in Windsor, but it sure does make you think about preparedness. Not only for our fishtanks but in life in general (flashlights, water, batterys, food, ect...)

Clay, did you do anything while the power was out? Or did you just hope for the best?

I lost power in Mill Valley on last Friday from 9am until 8pm!!! it was a pain. I had my heater in my apartment cranked full blast, and was splashing the water around with my hand every half hour. And.......everything survived!!!

I don't think I could have handled another tank problem after the last incident.
