So I get up this morning to find my tank at a steamy 90 degrees. Don't know why. Think maybe my heater was malfunctioning as the tank had been dark since the previous night.
I hurried up and opened the canopy up more, added a huge ice pack and proceeded to start chilling some of my water. Long story short, it's been almost 3 hours and I've now gotten down to 85. What a scare! Here's a warning to all - check your tank temperature regularly! I don't think it was at 90 for long as nothing seems dead or anything. I think perhaps I caught it just in time.
