After a long week working yesterday I saw my tank was in a bad shape so I did a 10 % water change today I notice my corals close and this 2 like that my water temp was 98 degrees i did a 50%water change and move this 2 to my other tank in my room and let's see if they survive I lost a golden torch too is a sad day in hopping they get better

Darn that sucks, I'm really sorry.. I will be going shopping soon for new corals and once I have them don't mind at all fragging some to help you make up for what you lost. I will soon be buying something that will send an alert to my phone if the temperature goes below 75 or above 84. A heater failure is my biggest fear in the aquarium other than the glass blowing out. Very sorry once again

Yea i lost a few snails a peppermint shrimp, and my really pretty flasher...my temp went up to 89.1....my tank is only 13 gallons so it was hard to control over this heatwave and i dont even have my heater on. I did a clean up today and a water change they look alot better now

You may want to look into getting a controller that can monitor your temp.

If the tank is running hot, put ice cubes in a zip lock bag, and float em in the tank....to help bring the tank temp down
