I had a tank crash today.


Sometime last night my GFCI tripped and knocked out all the circulation and heat to my tank. I came downstairs to see my tank at 64 degrees. The corals all look alright except for a few that are gone. My fish on the other hand are another story.
I only have two clowns and a yellow watchman goby left.
I don't think one clown will make it though.
I lost a Foxface rabbitfish, a coral beauty angel, a yellow tang, a cleaner shrimp, and a mandarin (he was my favorite).
Its a sad day. I am slowly raising the tank temp. Right now its about 70 and slowing coming up. What a way to spend my Sunday.

Sorry for your loss. I had my power go out a few months ago, and fortunately all that happened was my tang got a little Ich. Otherwise it was all good.
Hope you can find the problem so this won't happen again.
