Hey:

I just setup a small tank at my desk at work with a couple of lyre-tail killies. I was just informed that the air-conditioning is shut off on the weekends. :? It may get in the 90's- is this going to kill my killies?? I can move them into the server room on the weekends but that is a pain.

Thanks,

Ben

they are tough....BUT...
90's is risky

try 65 - 82 degrees F when possible

by the way
tell the boss leave AC on at 79 degrees F
won't probably cost him a nickel
probably will save money
(it will take more juice to make a building go
from 95 down to 75
than it will to make it go
from 79 down to 75)

Thanks Ned, it took a little convincing but it looks like he will leave the AC on. The AC here seems to go down periodically, hopefully not for any extended period of time.
