Bryan, what a tragedy! You had beautiful corals & fish in the tank. When you rebuild, let the reef community know and many of us will help restock your tank.

Totally sux :(

Any idea what happened? Possibly heat related? Some funky macro? Bad pump or heater?

Damn Bro, that really sucks. You had a sweet collection. My tank got wiped out over the winter during a power outage. But setting up the eight footer as we speak. Happens to the best of us. So lets go fishing.

Sorry Bryan.

I can't even begin to imagine what you must be going through.

Did you ever find out what happened to your tank?
