I already knew what happened, I just didn't know which tank or how.

Went to check them all and could immediately see my spare RSM130 looking cloudy.

Turns out, the stock Red Sea heater (I had just bought a few months ago from Aquariums West and never used) that I had just installed on Monday had gone into overdrive and had cooked the tank overnight.

There were only a few mushrooms in there along with some LR so no biggie...hate to see anything die in my captivity but still a best case scenario for the situation.

Now I'm going to get a controller.

ACJR or RKL.

Will have to see....everything I currently have is Apex but it's all pretty old stuff....green screens galore.

Lots of peace of mind regardless of brand.

I use a Finnex controller for my heater, I don't like to depend on the on board control that comes with heaters, $ 50ish and I bought it on Amazon.ca.
Works perfect and very accurate.
