Default mini tank crash....palythoa toxin the cause???

well im rotted now for sure last night i added a huge colony of palys and around 400+ heads and this morning when i woke up i had discovered a mini crash in my tank.my coral banded shrimp is dead, all sps completely bleached white and my elegance and open brain are closed up tight as can be and inflated in areas.while putting the palys in my tank last night there was some sliming as they were ****ed to be handled.all fish are fine and water tests show nothing no amonia and ph perfect.snails and crabs didnt seem to mind either nor did my feather dusters and anemones in fact my rbta has never looked so good.......

ive done a large water change and just changed out the carbon and already my elegance is starting to open up so i have it fixed up but now im curious on the potency of the palythoa toxin on inverts and lps?????


rotted i tell ya i loved my coral banded shrimp and ive been having such good luck with this elegance so far
