...Speaking of sea hares Yote... While I was on vacation my beautiful Jessica passed. I found her, shrunken down to half her original size, white in color, head sucked up into the powerhead. My tank's pH was at 7.0.

I tried lights out for 2 days and noticed a large difference, especially on my substrate.
