reef crashed

Dear all knowing R2R, it’s been a fun ride building this tank but today it seems something was way off, almost everything is dying - I’m curious what the major issue could be, all information I provide may or may not be relevant. Is it bacterial? Acros(dying): are turning a little light...

Recently, I had a alk swing from 11 to 30+ due to human error and wiped out all of my fish except for a pistol shrimp and some CUC as well as all but 2 of my corals The ATO is a 10g and can barely hold all of my coral, I run a Seachem tidal 55 on the 29g DS and need to keep it on the DS so it...

Hi everyone! We never think or at least we hope it will never happen to our own tank then bam it happens - the tank crashed! A crash is never expected and when it happens most of us panic... we scramble looking for information and help to save it. I know because it finally happened to me due to...
