Seriosly, the same day? What the hell. Nothing out of the norm... noticed one wasn't working swapped controllers around to see if it was the controller or pump. Determined it was the pump put the other one back to its original controller and it was working. Walked to the sink and disassembled the pump. Cleaned everything, everything moves freely. Came back AND NOW THE OTHER ONE STOPPED.

WHAT ARE THE ODDS.

I can't figure it out... neither pump is seized... and neither pump makes a sound... not even a slice vibration of a hint that its trying to work....

So now I turned my return pump up to create some more movement and I'm crossing my fingers that everything is fine till the new ones are delivered.

I fell pretty ill a couple months ago and lost track of my nutrients. I was auto dosing nitrates but not phosphates and the tank has outgrown what I was dosing and feeding. Over the course of a month my tank went from colorful Acro colonies to a dino outbreak.

When I started to feel a bit better I began physically removing it but the chunks which got kicked up and I didn't catch wreaked havoc in the tank. I witnessed a 3 inch chunk catch on a staghorn and when I pulled pulled it off a minute later the part of the Coral which had made contact was bone white. I witnessed dinos kill Acro polyps in literally a minute.

In the end, I lost three Acro frags which were in good health, a one foot wide colony, killed half of an 8 inch wide colony, and my most of my other corals bleached to some extent or another. I think I'm going to lose half of what's remaining, it's so bleached. Little 1/16 inch polyps hiding in their cavities with algae closing in on the radial polyps, growing across bleached flesh. It was so bad I witnessed Xenia let go of the rocks and say, "fuck this I'm outta here." Two years of Coral husbandry down the drain in a single month.

The tank is clean now, and I have the nutrients under control, dosing dry ferts daily when I feed because it's less work than mixing up fluid for the dosing pump. I didn't lose any fish thankfully but I lost some snails which were munching on some of the dinos.

It's not completely gone, like tank herpes, ready to flare up. I'm not throwing in the towel but boy am I sad. My health hasn't even recovered yet and had to spend 3 weekends in a row, sorting my tank out instead of resting.

Anyways, don't let your nutrients drop. Things can go from clean to horrible in half a month.
