![]() Sorry to hear that Kelly.
![]() Been there done that. A year ago I was playing with my doser and messed up the timing. Almost one gallon of Ca water dumped into my tank and kill most of SPS. Fortunately my tank didn't have any super expensive SPS. |

![]() All jokes aside, sorry for your loses. I totally agree with you kelly. If you would've raised it slowly I don't think you would have such a traumatic experience, sure Sps would've turn brown but they should've all slowly recovered. Countless times I had my alk go from 7.5 to high 4 in the 300 and I guess because the share volume of the 300 gallon tank I would raise it by 150ppm without any issues except once when I overdosed It and alk climbed to 8 from 5.1 a few Sps pealed. I guess you live and learn.

![]() Our hobby is tough, especially with uber sensitive sps. I feel your pain Kelly. *§ŁĄ€ happens. Mistakes always happen. The important thing is to keep on keeping on. A fine example is Peter in oakville (my hometown). Nicest reef in Canada, if not north America. A friggin seam splits and bam. It'll all come back for ya! Painfully slowly, but ya still have water in the tank!

![]() Hey Kelly that news really sucks, We had a saying in our trade, " If it's mechanical, it's not if it's going to fail it's when." Sad but very true.
