Help please!!!!

#1
I don't know if anyone can help with this but I live in cotopaxi colorado and have been without power for 3 days with it getting below 0 every night. I have been running a generator to keep my heaters on but I have still lost 90% of my corals and a few fish. If anyone has corals they would be willing to sell cheap or even loan and I will frag them and return the same size or larger origonal. I have a 500 gallon reef and most of my soft corals are ok but almost all of my sps lps are dead. I have had my tank up for over 9 years now. I run 4 400watt metal halides and a huge sump with refigum protine skimmers the works so the corals will be well cared for. Any help at all is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
James

Shouldn't you get your power back and your tank back in line before you put stuff back in it? I'd think you would be asking for help for people to host for you till you can do those things.

Power is back on and I now have a backup generator for those just in case moments. So problem has been resolved and my local pet store kept my fish for me but like I said all my sps and lps corals took a hit. All my soft corals somehow made it thank god. Now I am looking for a way to replace a few of them and repay people for it.

No worries. I didn't expect people to throw their stuff at me just figured it couldn't hurt to ask. Still plan on being a productive member of this club. Once I'm back on my feet I will have some frags up for grabs. I lucked out because ALL of my soft corals lived. It was just my monti's and my aciporas that took the hit along with my anomonies and a few fish. All in all I think I lucked out. The only funny part was my sailfin tang was swimming around like everything was normal the whole time. That's why we call her our little dumb blonde.
