I have a DIRE EMERGENCY! My central air in my house went out today and have lost all my corals as my temp went up to 94 degrees in my 90 gallon tank. IF ANYONE CAN TEMPORARILY HOME SOME OF MY FISH THAT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED! There are a few still hanging on for dear life, a black and white percula, a tiger cowrie, porcupine puffer, a couple snails, and whatever else I can salvage. If you could provide a temporary home for these fish please send me an email at r.cameron.ladd@gmail.com
THANKS

If I could I would but I don't have space. However, start out by dropping zip log bags full of ice in you sump. While those are cooling things down you can use liter bottles 4 fifths full of to water and freeze them for a more secure solution. Also hook up a fan to blow over your system to get evaperative cooling going.

Well I managed to save all but two fish after icing the tank all night. Once I get it to a normal temp I am running them all over to aquatek. All my corals died for the most part and my feather dusters are still alive as well the snails and hermits(cowrie made it!!). Does anyone know if the live rock is still considered live rock? Is it good?

I think you'll still have a base bacteria colony if the fish made it but I would be on the lookout for your tank to start a mini-cycle from die off.

Thanks again for all the help you guys, I managed to save all but 2 of my fish after icing the tank all night long and rehomed them all yesterday. Thanks again for all the advice and kind offers.
