Hello,
I bought a false hose where i cleaned it very well and run water through it for a good period of time the hose was running water from my tank to my chiller 7 meters away from my tank. I woke up in next day to see all my fish laying side ways breathing to death. while checking the fish I saw my foxface was dead brown tang was breathing very slowly and was about to die. What I did I have a 20 gallon nano tank with two clowns and a nem. I had to move all my fish that were alive to the nano Two tangs yellow and brown, 3 pajama cardinals, 4 bengai cardinals, bi color blenny blue spotted sand goby yellow wrasse and my anthias. i took out all the corals as they were all closed up and were very unhappy due to the contamination from the hose. I started to prepare saltwater first then drained all the water from the tank and added back newly prepared saltwater to the tank. Now all my corals are much happier than before, however I have not added any fish back yet And here is my question if I should be adding any fish back to the tank? With the fresh salt water even my plate montipora is sending out its sweeper tentacles lobophylias flufier than before.
I have decided not to put back the brown tang only the yellow tang and the smaller fish will go back to the 100 gallon tank.
the question is will it be ok to put back smaller fish and then add the yellow tang after maybe a week or so? shall I wait? And what tests do you recommend me to do before doing anything?
