So just got back in from Memphis and my wife turned off the heat completely while we were gone. Tank temp down to 71 degrees. I hope I don't lose too much from this :(

Should be okay as long as it wasn't for very long, I accidentaly left the window open in my room one night when it dropped down to 40deg outside, tank took a nice dive in temp but everything was fine.

I gotta hook my reefkeeper up to figure out how long. Obviously my heater situation needs to be upgraded. Though the house was down to like 60 degrees. It could have been for over a day maybe two

Temp drops are no where near as bad as spikes. When I feed I shut off my return pump and forget to turn it back on....the temp will go from 78 to 71-72 and the same when I do a water change.

Well I put 4 heaters in and set my alarm for every two hours. Back too normal temps and so far everything looks fine. My trigger came out too. I'm thankful all is well as I found a great store in Memphis and brought back a few Acans.

been down this road before, it will be okay I'm sure. I learned when ever I have family dog sit/tank sit I put a bit post it note above the thermostat stating the temp its to be kept at.

Yeah I bought a couple of scolys off then when they were at the Nashville swap a few years ago. They were priced too good to pass up. I hear plenty of good stuff about them. The acans look great by the way!
