I saw, and I felt so bad for you. I just can't imagine it happening in a very well established tank like yours. At least most of mine were all large frags, or small colonies.

That really sucks Catherine, I recently lost two large colonies that I had for years along with a few other smaller ones. I feel for ya.

I saw the photos, and they were nice colonies.

I think my tank now qualifies for radioactive status. The algae on the bottom of the tank, and on the sides has become neon in color....

I can now say I see some humor in the situation.

Sorry Catherine for your lost! Did you used some used water? at least 50% of your old water for the new tank?

A water change of 25-30% would help keeping the amoniac low.

Again, sorry for the disaster

I used about 75% old water and 25% new water when I set the system back up.

Thank you for your condolences.
