Hello all,
I have a modded biocube 29 that is about 4 months old. I just did my weekly water change and about 10 minutes after, I added a green bubble tip anemone that I bought today. I always pre mix my water to 1.025 and pre heat it to 78 degrees before adding it. All of my corals are doing fine and all of my fish are doing fine (clown, firefish, royal gramma). Almost immediately after adding the anemone, I noticed my emerald crab stumbling around the rocks and eventually falling to the sand bed where it is still moving slightly but not in good shape. My skunk cleaner shrimp then fell to the sandbed and is laying there, still moving but also not doing good. Also, a large number of amphipods seemed to start fleeing out of the rockwork and started to die off. I am absolutely clueless as to what happened. I know my salinity is good, as I am using a recently calibrated refractometer.
Any help will be much needed
Thanks
