I have a question for everyone out there. I know I been away for while but I have been busy. The tank was doing good until about 1 week ago. My heater took a crap and the temp dropped down to about 65 when I woke up in the morning. I replaced the heater and now all my corals are looking kind of shooty.
My Finger Leather was the 1st to go last week and then today I removed my Colt coral that died. The Xenia I have shrunk a little and are not pulsing like they used but most noticeable they shrunk. I tested my water and everything was fine and I had my LFS check it and the only thing that was high was my Trates = 20. My pH is about 8.4, Alk=10.4, Salinity= 1.025, temp is remaining stable at 76.5. The only other noticeable thing is that my sand is getting a kind of brownish looking debris on it. Anyone got any ideas? I am like pulling my hair out trying to figure this out. Thanks in advance.
