Well I went and pulled everything that was dead or dieing out. Still don't know what the problem is. I've changed 25 gallons so far. New carbon, GFO, and Skimmer. Water still looks like milk was dumped in it. LPS are not opening SPS that are left are showing little or no polyp extention, zoa's...

Sad FTS

I just put a carbon reactor yesterday so its only been on maybe alittle over a day.

Well my parameters are back to normal(see below) but the water still looks cloudy. Any idea's as to what it is. Could it be from the corals dieing off? Nitrates-0 Calcium-420 pH-7.8 Ammonia-0 Alk-9 Salinity-1.023 Phos-0

Bad news...Had a mass die off of brittle stars. They're everywhere. WTF.

Oh. I thought 400 was the norm. Thats what its been steady at.

I did not. But on the other side I have been using the same salt for close to a year and have the measurement I add everytime, so if it was off it was by .001 Also checked everything and I'm showing Nitrates-10 Ammonia-.50 Everything else is norm alk-9 cal-400 ph-7.8 phos-0 Could this be a...

The salinity in the tank is the same as it was(didn't change) but when adding the new water it came out of the return with the blurry apperance you get from mixing FW and SW. I got alittle nervous and added some RODI water I had made up to counter act what I did, but unfortunatly it was a after...

Brand new sump...not skimmer sorry for the confusion, so there was nothing to stir up. Temp was good but sal could be off as it was reading right but the salt was not completely desolved so I'm assuming it was higher. Normally I give it time I just rushed it like a J/A because it was a all...

I didn't wait for the salt to be completely disolved(still cloudy). I was told once that it can burn the corals. Is this true?

I was rushing like a noob to get my skimmer online and added 5 Gal of freshly mixed SW. I added it to the sump and it clouded the tank up. Today the tank still looks a little cloudy and the polyp extention of everything looks retarted. For example everything is open but not fully. Even the...

Another small update. Built a 20 gal sump to hold the new(used but new to me) skimmer. Also decided to stick with the T5's for now. Went and got new bulbs and put them in 2 bulbs every other day. To my supprise everything looks GREAT. Some corals I thought browned out actually are more colorful...

I'm assuming you are talking about http://www.marinedepot.com/Korallen_Zucht_ZEOvit_Sponge_Power_Coral_Additives_Supplements-Korallen_Zucht-VX5353-FIADSACS-vi.html From what I've read it also increases pest anemone's as well if you have them.

Thanks for the offer but I'm halfway through at this point. First thing I did was slice my finger on the glass. :beaten:
