BTA killed by Vortech overnight! Help!

[NastayNatron]

Well I did another 15 gallon waterchange tonight just to make sure things were in line. Everything is looking great and back to normal! As for the anemone there was literally nothing left of it. Sadly nothing to salvage. I am just happy it all worked out well. I will continue to run extra carbon for a few days and maybe do an extra waterchange this week but all is well.

Thanks for the help everyone. Maybe I overreacted a bit but this was my first scare with the tank. Hopefully I won't have another for a long time!

Cheers

Happened to me 2 months ago. Killed almost everything in the tank coral wise.

Had a white BTA.

Here's what I lost:

Blue sponge.
2x torch coral.
2 other anemones.
3x clams.
2x leathers.
Bubble coral.

A UV sterilizer helps a bit but otherwise you have to do big water changes.
