oh no.

Though using tank water, since no LR for filtration, could all the livestock caused a ammonia spike?

I did use some live rock in the temp tank as well as the rock that the softies are attached to.

I tested the tank water and the params were normal. Just one of those things that happen I guess and never make sense.

I'm just glad it is done and there should not be another reason to move the tank again in the near future.

Yikes,

Sorry to hear about that. Now I"m scared, I'm moving everything into temporary accomodations while I wait for my new tank from Golds.

fish can be lost from stress alone, maybe the tank change stressed them then infighting insued

well think about the carpet you ripped up if you did and installed flooring if they did cutting in the house for the laminate. I had some floors done too and my 65 gal. I lost some fish to along with had some drywalling done too that day.
