NEVER take care of your reef tank when having had brain surgery!! I left the alkalinity doser on for hours, well over a day and dosed over a gallon of alksalinity. When I got to 15 dKh on the Salifert test, I stoppped...I didn't want to know how high is was. Everything is bleached except the rock nems...BTA's, Torches, SPS, and even the Grandis paly's. Alk is at 10 dKh now. Couldn't do a WC in the tank because Red Sea Coral Pro salt is what I use. Found 1 torch this morning, totally dead with Brown jelly disease.
Is there anything I can do? I've been trying to bring up nitrate as I keep a low nutrient system. PO4 has been running high as nitrates were almost undetectable. I use Leds for lighting and wonder if a decrease in Par or turning the lights will help? I have moved the remaining torches and a few other corals to shade/under ledges. I am just Sick as I think everything is pretty much dying! This is a very large tank... Any ideas, suggestions are welcome. Thanks!!!
