Best of luck Deb. I know what you're feeling. I hope that things pull though.

I wouldn't do that anyway.

I was just thinking tonite tho, that if it was a water quality issue, wouldn't the starfish and snails be sensitive to that?

Just another stupid thing on my part.

The day Moo died I had brought home a new eel that I purchased from another reefer. It ate shrimp apparently. I couldn't find anything online and in the end after getting him, got Doug to search RC, since it's unavailable to me. It is a fish eater, a major fish eater.

Well, I guess I'll feed him some silversides and try and find him a new home.

To wrap up, a few more large water changes seem to have things under control. I would never believe this to have been a problem, as was suggested. However, I should say the water changes are 40-50g on a 230g tank. Not that major.

I believe it was a toxin. There was no ammonia or nitrite present in the tank.

Sorry to hear about Moo Deb that's just a shame

It sounds like a combination of factors may have brought on Moo's death and not just one action.
