 May be something was added to the water
HI,
Most of my dedicated saltwater stuff is isolated in the garage, but if someone cleaned the garage or stirred up some dust who knows what could happen,
many of the houshold items in our homes are deadly poisions to many animals. example I had someone smoke a couple cigs in my house and my tree frogs got sick, they were that sensative to the nicotine.
You wash your hands with soap or someone borrows a water bucked to mix up something and you don't know it and that stuff even though its a trace amount can be intraduced to the water column.
I tell my wife don't spray that air fresh stuff in my tank room.
heck I ve evne seen those so called freindly pest control guys kill my fresh water tank cause they sprayed the outside of my house.
Lots of junk floating around in our homes.
PSPs they sell all kinds of GFI outlets even power strip gfi's at lowes, if there's a tiny short it trips and then you get to plug in each item till it trips again.
its a pain but I have'nt been shocked in a year i plug a large power stip into a single gfi that way i only need two..
PS lights only last about 8 mos max before you most change the bulbes. any excessive salt bridges on the light means you may have corrosion, any rust products from the lights may have heavy metals like copper,and other nasties.

and any drastic addition of buffer in my tanks and all my corals, LTA's start pulling in for days.
