Hi all, I've had my fluval Evo 13.5 for several month. No issues. Once cycling was complete, added a CUC and 2 clowns. After a while added a few small corals and two bubble tip anemones. The clownfish loved them and spent all day in them.
Water change at least weekly, about 15-20%. Have intank caddies for chambers 1 and 2. Refugium in chamber 2. Also ran small skimmer off the side. Upgraded pump to Eheim Compacton 1000. Check water parameters every other day on average. No issues. Water temp between 78-80 degrees. Salinity stable at about 1.023-1.025
Haven't shown any ammonia or nitrites in weeks.
Over the course of 3 days everything crashed. No idea why. Everything died. BTAs, fish, snails, corals. Frantic water changes did nothing. It's a ghost town now. I'm gutted. The tank is now smelly and covered in algae. Like literally overnight.
What did I do wrong?
