As you all know, hurricane Irene hit the east coast of the U.S. I did not have a generator to maintain my tank, but I planned on tending to it during the power outage. Well, there was an electrical fire and a flood in my basement an we had to evacuate. All in all, when I returned to look at my tank, 4 shrimp had disappeared and there is little blotches of fuzzy white alge-like stuff on my plastic plants. And I was just wondering what it may be. Pictures to come.....
