Aquarium Advice Regular
Hello All! It's Salty from Reefaquarium.Info. Sorry it has been so long since the last time I posted on the other site.
Hey Reefruner or Fishfreek I need your help. :? My 90 gal Reef has a BIG PROBLEM! Last Wed I woke up to find my tank water cloudy (never in 2.5 yrs did this happen). It progressed to a clear slime on the tank walls, then to strips of slime on rocks. My animals looked fine until Fri then my corals wouldn't open up. I quickly did a 25% water change, but it didn't seem to help. I checked all my equiptment for any fouling. None found. I did notice my skimmers are working overtime. I had to empty my cups numerous times Thurs and Fri. I tested all my water parameters with nothing out of the norm. My dKH was 12.1 just a tad high, and my PH 8.0/8.10, I have always had a lower then norm PH with no problem. Thursday my PH didn't seem to move at all, then after the water change 8.4 fell to 8.0. The water change didn't seem to help at all. I do have a very large Magnifica anemone 15" diameter. Could he be puting off the slime? I even thought spawning event, but i quickly ruled that out. This came out of no where! I can post Pics if they help. I am afraid I might loose my tank to a crash! Please help.
