any dead or artificial deco in the tank ? that might release some poison. Is your Hydrometer working fine? those thing sometimes acting weird and way out of scale.

I dont' really have no way of knowing if my hydrometer isn't workin, no there isn't anything fake in the tank, nothing made of metal that I know of and i checked everything before I put it in. Ok nvm about the clowns, last one died as of a few min ago, some coral around the bottom of the main colony i bought still has color, some has color because of coralline algea growth, but the stuff that hasn't been taken over by coralline algea near the base of the coral still has color so there is some hope yet. The other coral has plenty of color since I turned off my light, ok not plenty, but its still fairly green/red and for 2 full hours, its color hasnt gone down. I suppose its now saving the coral, any ideas? Theres no flow, I turned everything except for the heater off. They are acropora corals, one is a large colony, and the other one a fragement. Water looks almost cloudy white.

Turn the pumps back on, that is probably the reason your last fish died.

I hate to say this, but....we told you so. All of the problems you're having, we warned you about in this thread. The unfortunate thing is that, because you weren't willing to do the research and acquire the equipment necessary to sustain these animals, they are going to die.
There is a vast amount of experience and knowledge amongst the members here, and you should make good use of it! Please learn from this...and perhaps someone can get those Acros from you before they die.

btw if anyone is near the Rabbit hill road area I can give you the acro's for a while so that they don't die, the only thing would be once my tank is reset up correctly *hey alright, "i told you so" really fits right now so don't rub it in* I would like a frag of that coral back. Assuming that it survives,
Current health of coral: Frag: Alive, slightly faded, but pretty green and red Colony: Pretty dead, hugely faded with small amounts of color left, some small parts near the base are still strong with color, others have false color, gained by the coralline algea, but this is fairly obvious and most of the still alive coral that is near the base, not covered with coralline algea does not have a horrible dead white to it .

ok now knowing that I've pretty much done as much wrong with a reef tank that I could *thinking that it would be stay alive well because everything for the most part was the same stuff at the place where I bought it from*, how should I affectively go about saving my remaining live coral before it turns to a nice white shade of dead?
