Well somehow my heater become unplugged?¿, not sure how that can/could happen, but tank is sitting at 71, not sure how long it's been like this, every lps is ticked off real bad, everything else seems to be doing fine, my new lime with peach tip torch is losing a set of 2heads, not sure what else is going to happen, heater is back on and raising temp slowly, aswell as another heater plugged in and on the opposite side of the tank, this better not happen again...

I would caution against raising the temp too fast, I had this exact same thing happen a couple months back and i raised the temp too quickly and it RTN on my single sps frag. The temp had been at 71 for over 2 weeks and the frag was completely fine. I beleive i did 3-4F in a 24 hr period. Hope this helps maybe other factors were at work with me.

Not sure buddy as the plugs are protected behind the stand and never get touched, maybe I did it who knows

Time for a controller and a few extra heaters...

I run 4 heaters, set just above water temp (the onboard thermometers always suck), and the apex regulates to 78 deg. If it drops below 76 alarms and emails start going off. Lifesaver. Hopefully everything pulls through.
