But the house is undamaged. Many of the houses around me have lost their privacy fences, but mine is still up. Only loss is two metae :#( But Big Mamma of the hasbrosus is acting like she is really in the mood and wants to play. My angelfish have grown like weeds and are convinced that I was planning on starving them. All the BNs and the false julies are ok. Could have been so much worse.

I didn't turn off the electricity, thought the fish would have a better chance of surviving that way. But I did turn of the air conditioning to save the compressor. I think it was the built up heat in the house that killed the fish.

pugperson Fish Addict Posts: 877 Kudos: 953 Votes: 293 Registered: 16-May-2003	Yeah and Heidi didn't haver any fishy losses. She kept her air conditioning on. Of course, as a renter, she doesn't have to pay for a replacement. I was worried about my compressor with flunuating power outages.

Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003	No, no fishy losses here...but one of my greens is looking mighty plump, plan on doing a water change with some cooler water tonight, see if we can set the mood for her Anyone ever go away for a week, and were unable to feed their babies during that week? My flipping fools haven't quit eating yetYou can literally see the nibble/bite/suck marks they are leaving on the algae wafers I think they missed their momma, or at least the hand that feeds them Heidi "I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom."
