Hi everyone,
I have a 90 gal tank with some lps, a hippo and a clownfish. Tank is very lightly stock. Tank is 2 months old. Rocks been curing for 5 months before adding to the tank. Last night, it was doing fine. Later that night, the skimmer went haywire and was overflowing back into the sump. I turned it off and this morning, the tank water is really cloudy. I turned the skimmer back on and it overflowed at first, now its back to normal. Ammonia is 0, Nitrite is 0, Nitrate is 0. Everything seems to be doing fine, however only the turbo snails seems stressed out. All of them were on their back moving all over the place as if they are suffocating. The only thing I can think of was that last night as I was cleaning the outside glass with Windex, I took the cloth and cleaned around the center brace. I sprayed the windex on the cloth first then wipe. Didn't spray it directly onto the brace. Could it have gotten into the water and caused all this? I did this many times before and nothing happened. Any ideas suggestions would help
