i find it very strange that some of my corals are dying through all this and some seem to be thriving

With everything I have heard, and by all means this is just speculation, but is it possible that with your new flow, that there isn't a proper exchange of water from the bottom of the tank to the sump? I know you have MP40s now, and they are great but you still need some movement up and down, I do this by directing the returns downward... food for thought.... couldn be why some corals are reacting harshly because they arent getting the oxygen provided by the sump? Feel free to give me a call Marko if you run into more issues....

i have no idea. i just cant see there being issues with flow. i get mini sand tornados rising from the sand when the powerheads speed up.

also one of the corals that i pulled out that was dead was an sps that was 6 inches from the top of the tank :( it was good this morning and now all white

heres a video showing how much flow i have on the sand bed.

and notice the patch of cyano right infront of it

did you dilute the chemiclean before you put it in the tank? possible that some touched that coral?

Steve

I diluted it and poured it into the sump.

Im out of options here.... just trying to figure out why things that work for everyone else never seem to work for you.... mutant tank? haha

You're obnoxious... Good luck with your problem. I was more so inquiring if you did regular water changes or just did a little one for the first time in a couple years due to the cyano.

Read my entire post

Do you have your skimmer running with the cup off? I've heard of many people doing this while running chemiclean. Either that or some form of air stone.

When I used the chemiclean in my tank, it took a day or two.

if you read the thread you'd see i did everything you suggested
