Last year this coming December, my family and i went on a weekend vacation to Gatlinburg, TN. Mind, I lived in a trailer and we had a power outage, and the heater stopped working. I had an extra heater available to use in COE. My fish and coral survived by miracle. But, my 2 peppermint shrimp bit the dust. The hermit crabs made a meal out of that one. The water temp was (too cold for them) way out of the safe range. The fish were hiding amidst the LR and kept warm enough to survive. When I got home they were all at the bottom of the tank barely moving but alive. I'd like to say I was gone at least 48 hours. But none-the-less, needless to say I was extremely lucky.
