my tank was 73 this morning :( i put a different heater in, but my bta looks really bad...
it is still sticking onto the rock and moves, but will it just die, or come back??

anyone? i don't want to take it out if it isnt going to die, but i also don't want to leave it in there if it will.
all my water parameters were perfect trites 0, trates 0, ammonia 0, phosphates 0, 1.024 salinity, calcium high (as always). it has been all nice and bubbled for the past 2 weeks, so it has to be the temperature drop over night.

I don't know, but I got a shipment of corals over a week ago, the water had drained out of some and the heat packs got wet. Everything was cold, all looked very bad. The temp was around 60-65. I was so afraid that everything was going to die, I did loose the frogspawn right away, but I have a beautiful sebae anomone that is doing GREAT. I would not of put money on that one. So far everything else looks good to. My fox coral is coming out nice. I was so stressed. I wish places that ship would put their heat packs in plastic so they wouldn't get wet. It gets around 30 here at night where I live . Good luck, hope it makes it.
