We hired a company to install a new water softening kit in our garage and the guy they sent out accidentally set the house on fire while soldering too close to the wooden wall -.- luckily the fish tank is on the other side of the house but the house was filled with smoke and now everything smells. The water company's insurance said they'll pay for a "wipe down" to get soot off the furniture and household items, and then theyre going to fill the house with Ozone for 24 hours to remove the last of the smell out of the furniture and air vents. Well apparently ozone removes all the oxygen out of the house so we have to stay in a hotel overnight while they do it. My roommate spoke to the guy (I was at work) and they noted the fish tank and, after my roommate informed them they cant just "pick it up and move it" into the sunroom, which is not being ozoned, they said they could put a barrier around it to keep it safe. But it doesnt make sense to put an airtight seal around my tank and sump for 24 hours because then I dont get any oxygen exchange and my fish suffocate... So........
If I *have* to drain it and move all the live rock and fish and corals to 5 gallon buckets in the sunroom, and hopefully most of the 60 gallons of water.... my roommate said insurance would have to compensate me for the manual labor and I would have to come up with an estimate of money for them to give me.
Have any of you dealt with this before? Is there a better solution Im not seeing? (I reeeeally dont feel like moving it all). What do you guys think is a fair estimate for having to disassemble a 40gallon tank and 20 gallon sump for 24 hours?
