Complete tank overhaul

[butterfly_babe4200]

I am finally done with my 6 hour tank overhaul. I took everything and one out and added 40 pounds of live sand and 25 pounds more live rock. I think every one has survived except for my Royal Gramma it looks bad, no movement only breathing

I bet the skin on your hand is all shriveled up now too,huh?.I've had my arms in mine for over an hr rearrangeing things before.Its time consuming getting every piece of rock/coral in that perfect spot.
BTW,what was the reason you decided to add the x-tra LR and more sand?

[butterfly_babe4200]

I was all shrivled up... I added the new rock and sand because I did not have enough in there originaly, and I had a friend give me 40 lbs of sand and 25 lbs of rock in exchange for a bag of salt. I now have a much more reef like tank. But it came at a cost... I think I completely lots mt frogspawn to brown jelly and it spread to the yellow side of my sun coral, and my green brain is still not happy but I see on brown on it.

I responded to your frogspawn thread concerning brown jelly.That stuff is nasty,its tough to kill it too.Took me 3 dips/direct Lugols apllication too to kill it off f a Favia sp. i bought.
