What happened man? Why did you end up doing a tank redo? So many nice SPS lost...very sad indeed...BUT the new scape looks awesome and hopefully it will look better than before.

Did you start with dead rocks? Did you dose any bacteria to start the filtration?

Thanks bud. Yeah, bryopsis, majano, and aiptasia were plauging the tank so I decided to just hit the refresh button. Started with all new rock and sand, yes I dosed bacteria to get the cycle started. I used established water from a friends 300g and about 40g from my water.

Thanks for the love everyone, hope the tank gets back to shape soon.

Not much of an update, really seeing some color starting to come back. I rearranged a few things.

Thanks, you two. Sahin, the colors are looking good again, already. Been dosing KZ flatworm stop and the corals are loving it. Plus, the spectrum and schedule of the lights haven't cganged. So, as long as I stay on top of things, colors and growth will be the same as before.

Fingers crossed.
