That's too bad. Have you looked into other power options? Car battery mod LOL I'm sure there is a way to do it.

I remember Electrobes doing a car battery powered back up but don't remember where the thread was, maybe you can PM him?

m'akoyPINOY · Oct 31, 2012

I live in apt 8 floor!I think car battery it's not an option. WAter is smelling bad as right
now.I think i'm done for reefing for now.

Nuocmam · Oct 31, 2012

I've always loved your pictures man. Wish there was something I could do.

Kasasah · Oct 31, 2012

Gorgeous tank and corals. Hopefully after I redo my setup mine will start to look like that

I came to manhattan from Los Angeles for a wedding over last weekend and stuck here because of flight cancellations. Leaving on Saturday, in the meantime, anything I can do to help you out. Everyone and anyone who has seen your pics is overwhelmed by the beauty of your tank. Anything I can do to help salvage anything, help with water change, whatever, let me know.

:-( I wish I could help all you guys trapped without power. What I meant was using just a car battery. (Not attached to car)

Power is back on in my apt.Tomorrow i'll start rebuilding with a few frags that survived.
My living room is stinks from the dead reef tank.:crossedlips:

Lacktaters · Nov 3, 2012

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I've really enjoyed the exceptional pictures of your beautiful corals. I hope to see more pics once the survivors recover from all this...

Scoly · Nov 3, 2012

Man, things like this make us feel so helpless. I truly wish you the best! Keep us posted!

skinz78 · Nov 3, 2012

You've shared the love with your corals by fragging, hopefully some of the peep's who have gotten frags from you will see what has happened to you and share the love right back. I know if I had gotten any of your beauties over the years I'd be making a box up as we speak....

PolandSpring · Nov 3, 2012

Hey.. Send me a message. I can set you up with a nice box of zoas and deliver it to you

m'akoyPINOY · Nov 4, 2012
