Here's my story:
Hubbie and I went out of town for 3 nights and had a sitter take care of tank. Hubbie had her dose the vodka. Got back and as far as I can remember everything looked fine - Except clam, which was on his way out before we went out of town. I thought he might make it so we left him in tank. We removed him when we got home. Temp was little high 83 degrees. Hubbie puts a gel ice pack which is inside a zip lock bag into tank. leaves it in there for a good 24 hours.
When we came home from shopping yesterday I noticed hammers not happy in main tank, then I look in sump room and hammers in an attached tank not looking so good either. Acans in main tank all receeded. But favia's and pulsing zena's are loving life.
So I do a water change and add carbon to tank. I'm gonna do another water change today and replace carbon. The hammers look alittle better, but acans still seem tramatized.
I wonder if it was from clam, vodka, or gel pack(even though he had it in a zip lock) What do you guys think?
