So what narrow escapes have you had recently?
Why do I ask?
Well I went away for a few days this week, so before I left I did water changes to my tropical and marine tanks.
When I change the water in the marine, I unplug both the heater and the pump, change the water and then plug them back in.
Unfortunately I didn't plug the heater all the way in, and so for 5 days it wasn't turned on.
When I got home I gave both tanks a quick look over and all looked ok!
It was only when I felt the temperature of the water in the marine rank and thought "that's cold" did I notice it was unplugged still!!
So for 5 days it hasn't been over 18 degrees, and probably dropped lower over night.
Lucky or what!
