They have all been in the tank for over 2 months, I was just glueing them down in the spots I wanted. All of em were perfectly fine, and healthy. They are no bleaching and dying, and closed up.
Salt levels are perfect, no one used the bucket for anything else than the WC ( I am very strict about that LOL)
Hahah
Ok so I noticed one of the montiporas turning pale, but that was because it fell OF where I had glued it previously, and was sitting upside down for a day. Had just finished some weeding in the backyard, but obviously washed my hands clean and wiped off soap fully. It wouldn't have been my arms/hands. Could I maybe have upset all the corals from the disturbance of the glueing, the WC, and forgot to mention that the filtration output pump on the biocube stopped working for an hour, due to e pump not being clean. Maybe all the stress was the cause?? They were all great before the WC, no issues. I'm honestly lost at his point...
Your'e right. I used CorAffix Gel "two little fishes", cyanoacrylate adhesive.
My housekeeper once poured floor cleaner and ammonia (etc) into the laundry sink which had a bucket of RO/DI water in it. I poured it out but then put that bucket into another bucket, which contaminated THAT bucket. Next water change had devastating affect, even in a 120gal system. I learned to keep a better eye on the buckets. That's why I asked about the contamination...
When I went to test the temperature of the bucket water, all of the black beads in the mercury fell onto the bucket, and then I realized, it could be mercury poisoning. If so what percent of a WC do I do?
Yes, just happened now. I'm doing small 5 gallon water changes, as to not stress the tank even more. Corals look half dead, fish are fine(as of now), and starfish does not look great at all.
Ok it would probably not be mercury, I'm stumped.
The animals would have to ingest the mercury to be affected by it, it doesn't mix with water. I would suspect you used too much glue at one time.
