Went on a 2 week trip and while I was gone my skimmer line came off and tripped my power so no power at all. My dad came by and told me all my backup pump are running but was unable to get main power back. SO I had only PH going in the tank for about 4 days. I guess it could be wost but lost 4 large colonies and 6 -8 frags. Also it browned out my tank. Guess I have more room for the upcoming frags swap :)

Sorry to hear that Wayland. Did you give me a frag of any of them. I could pass it back at the frag swap, so atleast you keep the line.

I feel a little of your pain, I just got back from a one week Vacation. The person watching my tank used half bag of frozen food in a week. I have the worst Hair Algea bloom. I can't even see my Zoa's.

Sorry to hear Weyland... hopefully things go well... I fully understand the pain since going through a chain of horrible events my self in my tank for a whole month. and lost considerable amounts of corals/RBTA's/FIsh/ INVERTS.

Hey Weyland, sorry to hear what happened to your tank. I'm glad your back-up worked at least and it wasn't a total loss. You'll have to swing by my place one day and pick up some frags.

Wayland wow thats too bad man, I was kinda nervous when I went on Vacation two weeks ago too, but my system was able to sustain itself while I was gone.

If we got any of those from you before, that you lost, just let us know and we should be able to get them back to you. Sorry to hear that it happened :(
