HEATWAVE 

Our recent heatwave in San Francisco (not very hot, but hot enough to matter) raised the temperature in both my tanks to about 82 degrees Farenheit. Not good. The 10G tank fared better, with no casualties, but Asgard lost two fine citizens: one of the Norns and one of the Rasboras (the female). Thor (SAE), not surprisingly, fared exceptionally well, as did the remaining Crystal Red, Lifthrasir.

I'm going to add one or two of the mini Rasbora maculata, but only after I know the weather is going to settle down. And after I'm sure I've taken care of the Tiger shrimp population explosion from the Norns' breeding frenzy back in February.

Otherwise, the tanks are healthy and lovely to look at.
