Well I think I just lost my entire tank

[StirCrazy]

Well took out 5 more corals and I am down to 4 frags left in the tank.

did a complete set of reedings and the tank is going through a cycle right now, amonia is just under toxic levels for my PH, nitrites are trace. so I guess I will test my amonia over the next few days and see how it goes. might be a week or so befor I can put anything back in the tank.

Sorry to hear of your misfortune Steve. Once again, another "senior member" gets "slammed". . I hate to hear it but sadly enough it happens to the best. It shows we're all at the mercy of factors beyond our control. Be it a heater or an unknown toxin release...the list has potential to be endless. It's kinda' humbling...
Like we said to Tony when he had his recent disaster, the experience and knowledge of you guys, (and gals ), benefits so many of us that talk of the freshwater conversion is troubling...hang in there and build over.
Unfortunately I have little to offer to assist in rebuilding other than support, but peoples true colors really shine in times like these !

I was very encouraged at the reponse from your fellow reefers on the west coast. It feels good to know that when something bad happens people will pool together to help. Its seems apparent now that Canreef is doing its job.

Just an update down to 2 frags left alive may be 3 cant tell on one for sure.

Once again I want to thank people for there concern. the tank is going through a full fledge cycle right now, what else would you expect after ~50lbs of coral dies in it . but as of this morning the ammonia levels are starting to drop so the cycle is on the downward stretch.

for those that have offered frags, I thank you, but I won't betaking any at this time as I want the tank to Finnish cycling. also I don't want anyone to be insulted if I don't take them up on some of there offers, I am still amazed at the amount of support there is here. I am rethinking the direction of my tank .. coral wise.. as because of the loss I can so I might be a little more picky in the types and such of corals I get in order to match my new vision of my tank to be.
