Well my tank was fine yesterday mourning everything looked great. Feed the fish and left and got back around 5pm, and everything looked like it was dying!

Xenia shrunk and is now blueish, part of my acro looks bleached, my clam looked soo small for the first time.

Gona check in the mourning my water  and do a water change asap
is there anything else i can do???

What are your water parameters?

Don't overlook temp. when checking parameters.

Tyler.L

or the clam spawned or something maybe something happened something died and ammonia spike but i will agree with ross temp is something you'll overlook and you'll be at like 90 degrees and thats why everything is looking pretty rough

oceanview

Nirate 0 ppm
ammonia 0 ppm
nitrite 0 ppm
pH 7.8


well i did notice my temp gauge around 83 F when i got home

Vincenzo.

83 is manageable.

Any Updates on ur situation?

Hookup

What are your alk, ca and mg???

Any idea what your Orp is? (Redox meter)

Could have low oxygen.. though if you're running a skimmer that's less likely.
