Chemi pure was only in for about 4 days. IT had slid down to the bottom of the overflow and the pump was pulling water fairly close to the bag. Ive concluded that it pulled a bunch of the Phoseban ingredient out of the water/bag and that caused the yellow. If high enough concentrations it would make the water "heavy" and not easy for the fish to breath. There for killing the fish :)]]> Mon, 16 Apr 2012 18:02:37 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=55622&PID=461741&title=dead-tank#461741 <![CDATA[Dead tank : Ouch.

Ouch

Ouch. Continuous use of Chemi-pure is not good. Do you think it was it the cause of the yellow or the cause of death which resulted in yellow?

Your tank looked good, Dion. I'm sorry to hear that it crashed.

I've had green water in a tank that was cycling. Yellow is a new one.

That's a good thought. I'm pretty sure Dion would have had lot's of Bristleworms, bu they often survive when other things die. They are great scavangers, part of the cleanup crew.
I was thinking the color would be a combination of colors from the many things that died in the tank. ]]> Mon, 16 Apr 2012 11:22:59 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=55622&PID=461671&title=dead-tank#461671 <![CDATA[Dead tank : last week I had pulled some bristle...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=55622&PID=461667&title=dead-tank#461667 Author: suiso man

last week I had pulled some bristle worms out of my tank. I accidentally cut one in half when I pulled it out of my tank. I put both parts in a cup that had some tank water in it. from my hand. it turned the cup water neon yellow. I wonder if it could be that..]]> Mon, 16 Apr 2012 10:51:18 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=55622&PID=461667&title=dead-tank#461667 <![CDATA[Dead tank : Man I would have thought it was...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=55622&PID=461664&title=dead-tank#461664 Author: Jeremyw

Man I would have thought it was the Cuke, Im curious to find out if you ever do what made it that yellow. Ive heard of a dark brown/yellow milky yellow but NEON? That is weird! ]]> Mon, 16 Apr 2012 10:29:51 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=55622&PID=461664&title=dead-tank#461664 <![CDATA[Dead tank : Well......It wasn't the cuck....]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=55622&PID=461653&title=dead-tank#461653 Author: Dion Richins

Almost. Kinda like a neon yellow. Very bright. I have these cuc's in all my tanks and have never had an issue. I don't know if the hawk fish pissed it off or if it just decided to commit suicide. The funny thing is I pulled the clowns out on Friday because they are mean. That will make the third disaster they have survived ;(< ="text/" ="" ="/B1D671CF-E532-4481-99AA-19F420D90332etdefender/huidhui.js?0=0&0=0&0=0">]]> Tue, 10 Apr 2012 09:07:02 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=55622&PID=460464&title=dead-tank#460464
