I have a buddy up in AR and we both started the SW hobby about the same time. He's got a 100gal tank...i told them time and time again to do water changes and to test their paramiters.....but they didnt listen. I guess he got a wild hair and tested his nitrates....they were through the roof, im not sure the exact number as i have not talked with them directly (our wifes gossip) anyways, he freaked out and did a 75% water change on sunday.....im guessing that this is going to throw his tank into another cycle.(its been up about a year now) is there anything aside from moving the fish to another tank(which he doesnt have) to help save his livestock. he just has some Mushrooms as far as coral goes. But he's got a Porcupine puffer, LMB, foxface, Yellow Tang and....a couple other fish i cannot remember.

Is there anything he can do? or should i just tell him to start over?

thanks guys.
