Josh all my advice is just my 02 , listen and read what all here have to teach. I would guess that 98-99% of the people here know way more than i do , I only consider myself an amature at best. But you are in the right place to learn from successfull reef keepers!!!!!]]> Thu, 30 Aug 2012 19:47:50 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483541&title=merky-tank#483541 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483351&title=merky-tank#483351 Author: Josh

I speak with Josh often and as his tank is so new and he relies on LFS for testing and never has an exact reading provided to him , I would tend to guess that there is an issue with his water parameters that he is not aware of yet. FOLLOW what i have told you !! Water test test reveal tons of great info !!!!!]]> Tue, 28 Aug 2012 22:53:45 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483350&title=merky-tank#483350 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483336&title=merky-tank#483336 Author: Josh

It could be a bacterial bloom and the reduced oxygen in the water caused the fish to die. It is common in new tanks.]]> Tue, 28 Aug 2012 20:35:21 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483335&title=merky-tank#483335 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483325&title=merky-tank#483325 Author: Josh

Nope havent used anything like that around it. That I know of, my wife could of! Right now the tank is looking normal but some of the corals are not extended like normal so tomorrow im going to get the water tested to see the outcome.]]> Tue, 28 Aug 2012 19:12:47 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483325&title=merky-tank#483325 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483324&title=merky-tank#483324 Author: laynframe

My tank did this two weeks ago. had aquatic  come out and when i febreezed the house it almost crashed my tank ....went into a mini cycle, all good now but it was a scare! So if you have used fabreeze or any products in the room with the tank it will do it. ]]> Tue, 28 Aug 2012 19:10:46 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483324&title=merky-tank#483324 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483264&title=merky-tank#483264 Author: Mr.Gray

You should check those parameters because a cloudy tank can easily be a spike in ammonia nitarate and phosphates. And that would explain the fish death.]]> Tue, 28 Aug 2012 14:32:41 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483264&title=merky-tank#483264 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58709&PID=483260&title=merky-tank#483260 Author: Josh
