Wood floors here :) but thanks for the warning. Sorry for the loss.
Thanks,
It was truly heartbreaking :(

I've only saw one more reefer dealing with it. He uploaded pictures and my heart sank for him :(

UV equals dead bacteria. Which is taken up by the Skimmer. A few days later and the water will be crystal clear. Run carbon, filter socks and heavy skimming.

So what you're saying is I should buy a UV sterilizer? Because I do all the other things right now anyways

I did and only ran it a few weeks to clear up my bac bloom. It's worth a shot and you can find cheap hob ones on Amazon.
