Broke Reefer!
Sorry for the double post, but this is urgent! They cleaned the carpets in my office this morning - I watched them do it, and it seemed like they did a pretty good job not spraying anything near the tank or sump (which was behind closed doors in the stand). I went and picked up activated carbon at lunch, threw it in a filter bag, rinsed it in some extra premade water I had laying around, and put it in the sump. Foward an hour and 15 minutes and my corals are suddenly retracting before my eyes and my large nass snails are climbing the walls. I've pulled the carbon bag from the sump, unsure if there is something wrong with the carbon, or if this is chemical related. Just tested params, pH 8.2, salinity (high at 1.30), nitrite 0, nitrate about 1ppm, ammonia 0. What do I do - fish look okay but I just noticed the corals start to change about 15 min ago. Freaking out a bit!
