Dr. Tims Re-Fresh is attempting to crash my tank
My tank has been thriving corals growing like crazy and healthy fish. I have been battling a little cyano and after doing some research decided to add a new type of bacteria. Iv only ever dosed nitrifying bacteria. Last night I did my normal water change and did less than the recommended dose of re-fresh. When I woke up this morning I noticed a couple dead snails and all my corals extremely retracted. Fish very lethargic and the rock dwellers completely hidden. I immediately tested for ammonia which showed 0 and salinity was good. I added a bubbler to help with oxygen. By the time I got home tonight my birdsnest was peeling away. Tested ammonia again and was up past .5. Added some ammonia stabilizer and another water change.
I can only assume there was a massive bloom which sucked the oxygen out of everything and stalled out my nitrifying bacteria.
On top of that I got my first ICP back today that I did for fun and found I have extremely high levels of Antimony.
Any thoughts, help, or ideas are welcomed!
