I am sad to hear that you had problems. It seems like there have been a few people this has happened too. I hope other people learn from this experience. I think it is a good idea to test the ammonia levels in the tank daily or even twice daily if you have too. That way if you see the Ammonia levels increasing to dangerous levels you can easily do water exchanges, even in you have to do 30% water exchanges daily it is still better than losing so much money in fish and corals. Thank you Steven, looks like I will need to come vist you soon, oddly enough the RBTA is still holding on |

Yea I added it then a few days later noticed diatoms all over the glass and that rock, decided to pull it and let it color up in another tank but it was to late it had already started a cycle. Nothing got to high but just the trace amounts of ammonia was enough. Wiped out my tank again and just had it stocked and looking good again. Almost threw in the towel but decided give it one more try. I'm discouraged and disappointed in all of the loss since moving my tank. Guess you win some and you lose some, just frustrating when you lose so much.
