Ya. I crawled hand and knees from my couch to the tank. 12 feet. I had to stop and lay down several times. It took me a while. It took everything I had to try to save my live stock. I only had enough energy to dump it in before I lost consiousness again. All my coral and clams were in tubs for over 14 hours and were now in a pile at the bottom of the tank. I figure this led to chemical warfair and a domino effect which led to the whipeout. I had just about every symptom for a fatal palytoxin poisoning. I should have been in the hospital but I live alone so there was no one to save me. I'm really lucky to be here to be able to tell my story and warn people not to try to get rid of palys with hot or boiling water.
