This morning - Fish are fine.
Come home, My beautiful rainbow has been picked apart and the other fish are gasping at the top for air. I check - There is waves at the top. Then Temp. 91*f. 91!!! I look at the heater, the Elements are GLOWING red. There's a bit of moisture inside. Clearly, my heater has packed it in.
NOW, I have an issue: I'm a project manager, and I'm presenting to the C.E.O. of the company tomorrow at 9:00 am, and its a 1.5 hour commute. Next problem: I can't get a heater in time! There's not even a 24 hour walmart anywhere close right now. I have a 7 watt Heating pad for a half gallon tank... that's it. What to do?! having the tank go from 91*f to 70*f (temp of my apartment) in a day will surely kill the remaining fish (black neon tetra's)
*sadface*
Maybe I can get the neighbour to do it? I just moved in a month ago though, I don't know anyone here yet. If only my Dog could do PWC's with warm water. :-(
