Default Tank Crash....

Well its been quite awhile since I've posted, but my life has been pretty busy with school, a new job and my tank crash.

Heres my tank and how it appeared in April of this year.



Then around the mid-august my corals were beginning to RTN by the end of august my coral were nearly all dead, most of them are seen here.



What triggered this was soon after my tank hit 89 degrees i got the temperature under control, the corals then began to brown, then about 1.5 weeks after the RTN began. Then a algea outbreak followed.

After the crash, I had two surviving corals, a plate coral, and half of my original Candy Cane colony. I ended up losing one fish in the following aftermath, My tang became sick as well, however is fine now. Every clam managed to survive. Every snail, bristle worm and other worms are absent from my tank now, so nearly all inverts died. Expect for those metions and my shrimps. I lost some of my most favorite frags and colonies.

And my tank as of today at about 13 months.


I'm not running my MH on this tank, until I order some new bulbs and are completely sure everything is back to normal again, before trying again with corals however it won't be the way it was again.
