Ok I had a outbreak of something that has killed half of my fish, so I moved them to another tank for treatment. I plan to leave my system without fish for 76 day to make sure all possible agents of death are gone and was wondering what I should do to keep my corals and clean up crew happy. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
 
I have mushrooms, zoas, hammer, frogspawn, torch, acans, favia, trumpet and some leathers.

Other critters are snails, hermits, emeralds, peppermint and cleaner shrimp.
 
I was dealing with zero nutrients in my tank a little while ago. My zoas weren't happy at all as they tend to like dirtier water, my SPS were happy though. I just increased my feeding a little to get some nutrients back in the water. You'll probably want to feed the corals a little more and feed the tank to keep the clean up crew happy.
