Acans



And here is the after. In 5 weeks, with all the heat of the fires, we evaporated the ATO, sump, and over half the tank. Here is the unfortunate aftermath




Bone dry sump, and salt creep everywhere



The amount of algae and stuff that covered everything after the power went out is incredible. It really was amazing to see what 5 weeks away from a tank will do. We were some of the lucky ones who didn't loose everything in the fires, but of all the stuff we did loose, the tank was the heartbreaker. On the plus side, the fires moved us back down to the city we love, and we haven't looked back. Started the tank fresh, and now we need to start hunting for all the coral we once had
