I woke up just now and my tank was literally steam with how hot it was. I had everything going fine for 2 months, i had corals and 2 fish in there and everything is dead. Parts of my rock have turned white, and all my corals and fish died. I took out what was still alive and put them in little containers with the tank water, then put it in a big bucket with cold water to cool them. I just dont know what to do. The aquatop is done for, it keeps reading the water at 72F. I put the rocks in buckets with nothing in them, are they fine in there? I spent nearly $300 on just the rocks and now most of them are white, and then the $200 on fish and corals is ******* gone. Can I even use any of this? I had nassarius snails and they're probably dead in the sand. Do I have to start over? I can't afford to do that right now, I probably couldn't even get a good heater.
How do I fix this? Is this like it for this tank? Do I need to get all new media since the bacteria on the rocks died? I just need some kind advice right now.
