I just took over a tank from a friend. She gave me about 45 pounds of live rock, 2 ocellaris, 1 dottyback, 2 striped damsels, a decorator crab, and 1 cleaner shrimp. She had them all in a 40-gallon breeder with a cheap protein skimmer. I just moved it all to my 50-gallon with a 20-gallon sump, new sand, reef octopus skimmer and I added 5 turbo snails to start taking out some of the hair algae. Everything seemed to be OK the first couple of days, but now the ammonia just keep rising! I've been doing multiple water changes a day and added prime but nothing seems to be working. I've already had quite a few casualties. The cleaner shrimp, damsels, turbo snails and dottyback have all died and now the clown pair is starting to get the cloudy eyes and heavy breathing. My ammonia levels have raised to almost 1.0 ppm now. nitrite and nitrates are still close to zero. Does anybody have any idea of what I can do? My RODI can't keep up with the water changes. Should I mix some more water and keep the fish in a bucket until this passes. Thanks so much for the help.
