 A devastating super typhoon
well, this just happened this weekend.
A super typhoon passed through my country. We have been blessed for the typhoon weakened when it reached the Sierra Madres - Cordilleras mountain range from a 240+lph winds to a 150 kph and even weaker as it left for the South China seas.
Power was out for 18+ hours. Now this is where we all should be ready. Batteries, air pumps, oxygen stones, etc. should always be in stock (my batteries were weak, my battery air pump was malfunctioning and I did not have any oxygen stones).
While my corals were lucky enough and so were my eels, a clown fish and a chromis, the rest died (my signature shows the dead animals). The carpet anemone also survived.
Being ready pays. Lesson learned.
Incidentally my losses were small. Many lost their lives and property (death toll range in thousands). Seen from the damage, mine is insignificant. Still it sadden me so much. And seeing others suffer worsened it.

I retired the reef for now. Maybe a nano or a softies tank in the future when I have both time and money. 60 gallon FOWLR in the meantime. My echidna nebulosa are still going strong! |
