I am new to the group and am I'm looking for help with a problem that developed in my tank. Im not sure if this is the right place to ask this.
I have had my tank for about 5 years (30 gal.)and had little problem with my fish or corals until about 8 months ago. I had about 20 annnomies and a few corals, and all died in a few days including my snails and a shrimp. I believe it went a bit toxic without doing enough water changes. I then did a 50%water change and lost all my fish but one.
Since then I have done many more water changes and cleaned my substrate live rock (by rinsing in RO water) and filter also. I now have about 8 fish and all are thriving. I have had my water checked many times and everything seems to be well within parameter's.
I have tried to reintroduce a dozen corals over the last 4 months, a shrimp and snails. All are still dying in a day.
Any idea on what I should do or check?
