Skimmer failed

[Natemeister]

i have 65cm tank and my skimmer crashed it was leaking everywhere and notice it last minute. Without realizing at first.

I woke up this morning saw five fishes died except for two clownfish. I immediately did a 50% water change and before changing water i checked the parameters all are normal except for very high nitrate.

then later on the other clown fish died
One more left.

I just need a confirmation from
You guys if i can transfer the clownfish on my reef tank? Will it not affect the water parameters i have on this reef tank?

I dont have any spare tank.

thanks in advamce

Transfer the clownfish where? (confused)

Sorry for the confusion i have two tanks one crashed. Am i asking if i can transfer the clownfish on to the established reef aquarium i am afraid it might cause a problem.

Transfer it. If its alive it's ok.

Unless it was sick before or incompatible with other tank..either way that seems like the only short term solution
