Welcome! You have come to the dark side... good for you. New tank syndrome is something that we all have to deal with to one degree or another. The trick is PATIENCE. I always suggest 4 months of cycling with no animals and no light during that time. Then, start with livestock... slowly. Hang in there and ride the ups and downs. Don't do anything drastic at this point other than maybe setting up a QT for the fish. The corals... wait and see. More details on where you are in the process and the parameters would help if you need some advice. Merry Christmas.

Again I welcome you to R2R. The tank looks awesome. Obstacles hit us usually at the beginning and just hang in there with that thingy they call patience.

Well, without knowing anything about your parameters and the process that you took from the very beginning up to this point we can't help much. It sucks watching the slow demise of your tank inhabitants.
If you can give us a rundown about all the equipment that you have including model type, what your process was in setting up and starting the tank, what you are dosing, what your maintenance schedule is, when you added what livestock, what your sand is and what type of rock you added, what your cycling schedule was & how/what you tested for during that cycle, your lighting schedule & intensities, what your test parameters are, settings of adjustable pumps, what/how you have your sump set up, basically every single little detail from beginning to now. With that information, we can help. It sucks for us to know/watch your tanks demise as well.
