I am so glad it all worked out Lynn! I knew it would. Hubby definitely deserves a good meal...

lcstorc · 03-05-2007, 06:45 PM

LOL For sure. Actually he re-did the eggcrate so now it covers everything. I should be ok now except maybe the clown goby. He is just so tiny he can fit through most anything. He would have to have good aim though to make it out.
The power heads and wavemaker are now working. Corals are coming back out and everything looks fine.
I got off really cheap on this one. A $15 light, and a heater however much they are. Usually it isn't even in the tank since we are in Florida. I'll get a new one at some point but no big deal. Apparently our tank is now Lynn proof as a result. So I guess that is a good thing.
I just know I am finally breathing right again. I am so relieved. I thought I had fried the lights and everything. Not just my little work light.

saltwaterfarm · 03-05-2007, 06:45 PM

BTW, I second the motion for the gutterguard installation...

lcstorc · 03-05-2007, 06:47 PM

Hey at some point I went over 6000 posts and didn't notice it. LOL. I am now a Great White Shark. I think babble fish fits better since I talk so much. Proven by the post count.

saltwaterfarm · 03-05-2007, 06:48 PM

CONGRATS on 6000+... probably happened sometime during the post-a-thon, LOL

bluespotjawfish · 03-05-2007, 07:44 PM

Holy cow - Look at everything I missed because of work. Sorry I wasn't here for you! Sounds like you have everything back on track. Hope the light and heater doesn't set back the Bluespot purchase too long! Security is now in place now for Bluespot - yippee!

Congrats on the 6000+ posts!

Dentoid · 03-05-2007, 10:18 PM

Congrats on yor 6000 postabration! Glad to hear everything is back on track. I was worried for a while!

lcstorc · 03-05-2007, 10:29 PM

You aren't the only one who was worried. I am so relieved. I got a good scare. Hopefully it has taught me to be more careful when working around the tank. I should remember this one for a while.

sasquatch · 03-05-2007, 10:53 PM

OMG Lynn!! I think all that good karma just got dented today, glad there were no majors!! stuff happens! an elbow here a splash there lol had major shivers reading that, and now some karma to replenish you stock. Steve

Woodstock · 03-05-2007, 10:54 PM

Wow.. how did I fall so far behind in your thread Lynn?!

Congrats on the new ponies!! They are A-dorable~ I know how much you wanted some again. That was very sweet of Frank to get them for you!

Ouch.. so sorry about your heater/spill mishap but I am THRILLED that you were not harmed! That could have turned out much worse... Repeat after me.... NEVER reach into water to remove an electrical device that could be shorted! Turn off the power first. I know it is tough to remember such saftey precautions but you have to. I am very happy your fish are all doing fine

Don't feel bad.. we all have bloops

lcstorc · 03-05-2007, 10:58 PM

I know. I didn't even think about getting electrocuted. I was worried about the fish. When I told Frank the story his voice started shaking cause he was really freaked out. By then the bad part was over though.
Yes Steve, I did burn up some major good karma today. It was only after the fact that I realized how much danger I was actually in.

billyr98 · 03-05-2007, 11:00 PM

Me too Woody!!

Glad everything is safe from the heater problem!! Please!! Please do one more thing electrically for me.. Go Buy a GFCI outlet for your fish tank, as soon as the water would have hit the electricial it would TRIP the tank off!! You won't trip a breaker because of water.. The breakers only trip if you have too much current.. GFCI trip with water.. DO THIS PLEASE!!

Anyways.. Goodluck!!

Wow, catching up on five pages. Everything looks good and congrats on 6,000 plus!
