Some update photos.

Again, moves the foxface and twin spots goby back to my DT.

The Yasers are living in one cave.

New arrangement. The Acros at the back is going away. I was putting there to test the water.
Got a hire gun to clean up some Cheto and algaes. Convicted Tang.

Alright...back from my trip after 1 weeks away from home and wishing for my equipment holds. Obviously I expected some problem but not realize the degree. Anyhow, my houes power were gone for a while during my away. My dosing pump to refill fresh water did not restart. The salinity goes from 1.025 to 1.040. About 10% of water evaporated. One Yasha gobi jumped out of the tank. The tank is about 90 degrees because of the house AC was stopped after the power outage. Luckily I moves a couple of the larger pieces acro back to my main DT which didn't got issue because it runs on UPS. Most of the coral in the Nano is in recovering mode after doing some water change and dilution. The other Yahsa looks sad without its friend. The milli retracted the polyps and probably not going to make it. Surprisingly the Monti seems holding along well. Will update the situation in a couple day.

Wow! So sorry to hear this! Sounds like you now have the situation under control. Hope your corals and remaining fish pull through.

Another hectic weeks as I was on business trip. This time at least my wife and kids are home. The Milli from the last disaster didn't make it. All the other corals were stable. I moved around the frags as my Xenia is start invading the frag island. My tuexdo urchin did a good job cleaning up some brushy red algae. The room still constantly hit over 82. I think it was a mistake keeping it at the west facing room. Anyhow, how the falls come and temp keep to normal. I added a pair of Sexy shrimps and a mandarin gobie since. Photo to follow.
 
Some photos after the crash. Right now the weather is much milder. I think soon I have to pull the heater out.

Some update of the coral growth. After a long hot summer, weather has been much managable lately.
