So sorry to hear!
Don’t give up…not yet….keep on the water changes, use some 100 micron socks! It will help the skimmer. Add some aggressive bacteria supplements…and add some prayer...Good luck

You can do larger water changes. I just did a 140g water change on my 210g reef & the corals loved it.

Thanks all. Hopefully the tide is turned but it's still pretty cloudy. I can't much keep my eyes open much longer, I'm going to go empty the skimmer collection cup and call it a night I think. I know I shouldn't say things like "I might be done" when in this state but man alive, the frustration was right off the chart. What a way for the poor guys to go.

Tony, You can't quit. Don't worry the tide will subside. You can make it through this!

If there is anything I can do to help, let me know. *Super hugs*

Sorry to hear about your luck. The little buggers just did that in my tank the other day. Neat to see but my tank only clouded for and hour or so. I don't know if you are using Ultralith or not, but if you put in some UltraLife it may help clear your water. I will probably make it cloudier at first but it really seems to help nutrient export. Just a suggestion. Good Luck

I might be done, I am sure that it is more a common statement then not, been there and thought the same. It is good to vent. Hope it gets better soon.
