Last week we did the usual water change in the tank. Exact same way as we have done many times before. This time, we got cloudy water for a few hours. (I do a water change 2 times a month). The next day, I noticed two serpent stars were out in the open when they never are. The next day, one was dead with the top of the center disk eaten away and white. Today, the second one had "bites" taken out of the edges of the center disk and has disappeared from view. The big green serpent is so far ok, cannot locate any of the brittle stars, but this is not uncommon.
Does anyone have any ideas of what could be happening. I have also lost 2 peppermint shrimp in this tank and now 2 in the seahorse tank. (I changed water in there as well). I am using Instant Ocean out of a huge bucket of salt that we had gotten a month ago. It is half gone.
