Anyone in or near the Garden Grove area experience a power outage today?

Came home and my apex was reset, lights off. Horrible timing, just had an alk dip to 4.0 dKH, slowly raised it up to 7 over the work week. Had one piece RTN but everything else held strong. Now I get my lights back on and several pieces are starting to shed around the base.

Anyone know how long power was out? Fish still seem okay luckily.

Man can't catch a break onntgis damn frag tank. When I set it up I renamed outlets but didn't bother to reprogram certain plugs that would be constant on......like my return. Apparently this happened to be an outlet that was set to stay off in loss of power. Came out to a warm rear chamber and a 71.5 degree display.

No UPS? No notification when power is out? Sorry to hear Matt
Nah this was supposed to be a temporary holding tank while my 180g is built. That tank got delayed by a few more weeks. I didn't bother to run ethernet out to my garage, so no apex notifications. I've been stressed having all my sps in a little 35g water volume for these very reasons.

Lights are ramping up, BTA are out, sps have polyp extension. I've choked return pump back a little so the temperature doesn't rise too quickly. If I see tissue recession my plan is cover it in superglue for now. I don't think there is much else I can do at this point. Watch and wait
