Water change and carbon is always the first recourse.
Test water prior to change for ammonia and nitrate to see where it is at

What's your water parameters?

How old is your tank?

Are you dosing anything?

temp got high in the tank and the frog spawn cooked and died (20ish heads) . spewed all over the tank. Fixed the temp issue and did a 20% water change. Gearing up for another 40% water change tomorrow. Fish are fine. Corals are ticked.
