Tank Crash. Lost all my corals :(

[christyf5]

You know Scott, seriously, we are all trying to help but it seems so futile. Its like you're not really listening. Perhaps if we're a bit more blunt we'll get our point across??

Your tank JUST CRASHED!!!!!!! That means you're pretty much starting all over again. Doing a few 8 gallon water changes does not a fixed tank make!

Yes you've changed out 25 gallons but really, you've only diluted the problem. Your tanks ecosystem has had a major event and all you've done is masked the problem with a few water changes, a sandbed siphon and now you want to put an anemone in there??

You know that ammonia/nitrite/nitrate aren't the only tank parameters that cause problems. Who knows what was released into the water when your tank crashed. For all you know you could still have toxins from the corals or something in there.

I think part of the problem with your posts is that you come here looking for help, people offer it and then you just go along and do your own thing anyway. Why bother to look for help if you don't feel like listening to it. People are taking time out of their day to respond to your posts and then you just carry on as usual. If you're looking for a group hug, perhaps you should go to ReefCentral.

People have told you repeatedly to let the tank settle before you start adding any livestock and then you tell us that you are thinking about adding an anemone! Cripes, people wait months, almost a year before adding something like that.

Perhaps you should work on your respect for livestock. You don't seem to have much happening in that department.
