Got another question...not sure where this should have gone.
Last night we had a bad storm (north Texas), and my power was out for around 6 hrs (no that is not a typo). I have a DIY CO2 (2ltr bottle), and it is farely new mix. My power went off, so no filtration (sponge filter), no light. I unplugged the line from the CO2 because I was afraid it would over saturate my tank before the power went on (pH is already from 7.6 to 7.0). I know you are not supposed to have to regulate a DIY tank, but I felt like this would have killed my RCS, so what to do in a situation like this?
