When u are in the open area, is there a lot of flow directed at them? Super suns do not like very strong flow especially if directed at them directly. What do you mean by super suns melting? What i know is that if super suns do not get enough food, then they will eat themselves and the skeleton will turn white.

My Setup:

3x2x2 tank with IOS

Equipment List:

Chiller: Artica 1/5HP

Chiller Pump: Sicce 4000

Return Pump: OR3500

Skimmer: Deltec APF600

Wavemaker: Tunze Wavebox/2x Hydor K2/SCWD wavemaker

Lights: DElighting 2x150W MH + 2x 39W T5 Atinic

FR: Skimz

FR Pump: Atman AT-104

Tubby ATO, Kalkweisser Reactor with magnetic stirrer.

Thanks guys actually at first got thought of decomm when the tank crash....

But in the end still decided to carry on with this wonderful hobby.... :eyebrow:

Now have to start all over again to fill up my tank again... :whistle

Bro, here i am reading through your tank thread :)

When i come to know your tank crash incident page, decided to stop for a while and share a little more protection mechanism to minimize possiblity of tank crash - due to power failure ( eg. cause by short circuit etc...).

Have you installed a backup power supply ( some call it UPS ) for your reef system ? if not i urge that you consider one of those to protect your precious gems ;)

Treat others the way you wanna be treated...

Open placing with no direct wave.. is seem that the whole head/fresh come off from the head and not slowly eaten up by themself/recess.

When u are in the open area, is there a lot of flow directed at them? Super suns do not like very strong flow especially if directed at them directly. What do you mean by super suns melting? What i know is that if super suns do not get enough food, then they will eat themselves and the skeleton will turn white.

my supersuns are out right in the open and it's doing well.. could it be some other reasons?

Yes bro you make the right decision to install the temp controller, the other safety device is a back up power supply ( UPS) to provide at least few hours of minimum flow and areation (oxygen) to your tank in case of a power trip.

I just had an experience last week when i was out during day time, came back and found tank peach dark. I check my ELCB and it was tripped. Further investigation found the culprit was my refugium light got short circuit. Thankfully my UPS was on action powering my tunze pump and airpump.... from the timer reading, i estimated the power black out for around 3 hours or so !

In this case, the tank may still not crash because 3 hours is still bearable for the tank mates... but just imagine 6 hours or even overnight when you are not around !!!

Too much risk at stake for me... so am not taking any chance at all :)

Btw, thanks and look forward to receiviing your zoas !

Treat others the way you wanna be treated...
