So it started with the torch lost a few heads it's not BJD and we'll all looked ok FF 5 days and now all my SPS and my LPS are all dying. I lost a bunch of frags already and the frogspawn looks like it's ready to lose its heads my hammers all receded SPS is all dull or white but, the fish are fine. I did a 20g water change last night which is 20% and ready for another 20% tomorrow. I was about to set up a DT and see what would be saved but worried new water with nothing in it may cause more issues. It seemed I slowed the decline a little but, still not looking good. Other than esv salt I did about 20g in 2 weeks nothing new. I went back to my old salt for the water change and will use it for tomorrow's anyone have any advice ?
Sal 1.024

Nit 0

Something fall in the tank (kids)? Anyone clean around it? Check for stay voltage? What test kits are you using? If everything is really zero they could be starving.
 
nothing fell in that I know of the kids are older no Issue no chemicals API for most other then MG, CA, and
KH. so I know Its not absolutely 0 , no voltage first thing I looked for
 
Metals..?..

Do a $50 triton test, you basically send your water to Germany & they use high end machinery to test..

In the mean time get yourself some poly filter & use it!
 
Got the Polly I set up a at tank with new water is it ok for the corals or would this cause issues to try and hold some of them in there to see if it helps
 
Corals should be fine..
Just don't make a drastic jump for
Alk, lighting, salt
 
so 24 hours now and they do not look better in either tank the QT or the display. Should I drain it boil the rocks and get new sand and start over ??? I have been running carbon in a filter sock now for 24 hours also
 
well lost all my SPS my hammer lobo is showing skeliton rock anem, fish, shrimp, still alive nothing else is right all tests are on the mark not sure what else I can do at this point
