I’ve been battling Dino’s. I was advised to dose microbactor 7, remove chemipure , and shut off protein slimmer. This is what my lfs suggested. I’ve been maintaining 3-5 nitrates and 0.09 phosphates -0.3 phosphates for 4 weeks. The Dino’s were coming back so I went to lfs. The only thing I did differently from before which seemed to be working was shut off skimmer, and remove carbon, and started dosing microbactor 7. My tank became really cloudy this morning and when I csme home everything was dead except my corrals and some hermit crabs. I have lost 600$ in live stock if I lose my corrals that’s 2 grand please help. I tested all my water when I got home and noticed everything dead, nothing was abnormal. I bought an oxygen test kit and I have between 0 and 2 mg/ml of 02 and the kit says I should have 8 mg/l. Is this why everything died ? I’m so ticked because like I said I have been battling Dino’s for a month and the die off was nothing compared to 3 weeks ago but nothing died and it barely got cloudy before. What killed everything ? It can’t be the Dino’s because like I said 3 weeks ago I had way more die off from the Dino’s. Why is my oxygen so low ? Here are pics from two days ago and then today (cloudy). I need to figure out what killed it stuff and how to prevent it from killing my corrals. Thank you so much I’m so sad. Like I said I tested my water for everything I’m super OCD and nothing is bad. I have zero ammonia, 0.08 phosphates , 5 nitrates etc. salinity is fine my water is just so cloudy and it smells weird.
