destroyed vacation and tank

[darkreef]

concepts gave my fish a home and I'm not complaining about that. thanks a million

what i was complaining about is i kept telling them to leave it all alone after the fish were out and they didn't. they didn't listen to a single thing i said . even all the wiring was a mess and i plugged in my wave marker that was hooked up to my pump power supply? not sure why all the wave makers and pumps were disconnected at the controllers and swapped .. now i may be looking at some equipment replacement. this is why i told them to leave it alone. ( the sitters not concepts)

anyways I'm 4 hours non stop in

it begins


equipment out and in a vinegar bath. one sump section almost clean



vinegar bath


live rock? this was left with no flow.. reason my house smells like warf
i threw some powerheads in it not sure if its to late. water was brown and slime


four hours in... sand removed. water mixing in the now clean sump!
getting close going to start adding water soon



it took a lot less time then i thought . even doing it by myself!
thanks everyone ... pink reef this was a fresh start only up for 2 months ( swapped from a two year tank) :P
