FYI - I live in Pt. Richmond and the power went out last night or this morning at some point - for what it's worth, it is back on here. Perhaps it is on at your house too.
As for the sleeping bags - that's a new one! 
I suppose it will be ok, but you might be trapping in C0 2 if it's over the top. Not to mention, fire hazard... | |

Crap, yeah i didnt think about the power going back on... Damn. I just was assuming it would stay down. Maybe I should leave work early. This day is screwed anyways I cant focus because i keep thinking about my fish.
Glen.
Luckily I dont have any corals, and only have 3 fish in a 45 gallon tank. so i am hoping the two clowns and the lawnmower bleeny tough it out. | |

Do you have a gas stove? What about puting warm water into contaners and floating them? Just a thought. | |

I think the sleeping bags were a good idea. Anything that would insulate the tank. Keeping the lid down would help the most there. _________ -- SAW39 45 gal modified hex. Started and cycled August 2005.
