Dino X killing fish and the corals are shrinking

[Westside Guy]

I started using Dino X last Friday Feb. 12th and I added 10ml for a 65 gallon DT & sump and continued dosing this amount every 2 days as instructed on the label.

When I first started I had removed my carbon (Chemi-pure Blue), increased the flow and kept my skimmer running. Yesterday I discovered 2 dead fish (they were extremely healthy) and some or the corals are shrinking, needless to say I was upset.

Should I put the Chemi-pure Blue back into the sump?

I don't want to have any further fish or coral loss, what else can I do?

I’ve never used Dino x but you have dinos the only method that worked for me was to stop water changes, bring up PO4 and NO3, stop cleaning the glass, and run a uv sterilizer. You do not need to turn off lights or skimmer. If your livestock is dying I’d do a water change.

I don’t think the Dino x is killing your fish it’s the dying dinos releasing toxins. This is the biggest downfall of Dino x as they advise to stop running carbon :/

It has been 11 days and I am tempted to start using Chemical-pure Blue again.

At this point if I was sure it was the dino x ( ive never used it) causing the fish deaths and decline in corals I would do everything necessary to remove any trace of it in the water.

If you completed the treatment then wait two days from the last dose and put in carbon to remove it from the water

Dino X is after 2 days completely out of the tank. It is biodegraded by the microorganisms in the aquarium
