Is everyone okay?

rcmike · Mar 3, 2020

Is everyone okay in the Nashville area after the weather that came through? I just woke up and turned on the news and saw about the tornado.

CAMAKAZY · Mar 3, 2020

Our place took a direct hit. Thankfully everyone here is ok. But we probably wont have power for a month. My tank was full of insulation. Bailed it out new water in. I have a battery powered bubbler in now. I have another place i could take it but all our cars are very damaged. The worst part is probably need to carry it all 2 blocks as the roads here are covered with trees and powerlines.

Prayers are with all who are in Nashville area.

If you need a home for things, I will drive up there after work and make the walk if needed. Just let me know.

Oh crap! So there isn’t any way to get a car to where you are?

If you need anything let us know. I could help if needed. just seeing some of the pictures and videos since it is daylight. It looks pretty bad some places.

I think between just a few of us in the reef club, we can help with your tanks and anything else you need. Just let us know. I also shot you a text.

Looks like where gonna try take the whole setup to my cousins. They are trying to clear roads right now. Only 20 gallons so hopefully us 2 can get it. Main thing im worried about is the insulation. I bailed a lot out but looking earlier a lot is still in the tank. Poured a lot of prime in hope that will cover it. As of right now my fish an mantis still breathing.

What part of town are you in? I have water mixed up if you need some or even buckets and help?

CAMAKAZY · Mar 3, 2020

Thanks to all who offered to help. We got the tank moved. Hopefully critters will be ok.

Dang man. I am so glad you are ok. Again, anything you need, please do not hesitate to ask.

rcmike · Mar 4, 2020

Glad you got it moved. I’m sure the tank was just one of many problems yesterday. Glad you made it through okay. If you need anything don’t hesitate to post here. I cant imagine going through what a lot of people are going through right now.

Hey red, a month? Where you at? I might be able to help with power.

rcmike · Mar 21, 2020

How are you doing CAMAKAZY? We haven’t heard from you in a while.

CAMAKAZY · Mar 21, 2020

We moved the tank day after. It got pretty cold that night but all i had was a battery air bubbler in. The tank had so much insulation in it. Long story short, the mantis wouldn't eat after the move. Lost him an my best corals. Very unsure about starting over.
