My tank is dead at least I think so I woke up and my Anemone is dead, A fish died, I think my sun coral is gone. The tank is only 6 weeks old, temp 78, ph 8.0, ammonia- 0, nitrite -.015, salinity - 31 ppl or 1.023

Does anyone have any suggestions

Do a large water change 50%, run carbon, do 2 20% water changes after that and change the carbon frequently, when the water clears then test the water to see if it is ready for fish again. I would wait about 2 weeks after the water clears testing each day before you add anything live.

You also need to get the dead organisms out of the tank.

Sorry to hear that buddy do you know if the anemone was look healthy the day before?

Yes looked great actually, The only thing that look out of sorts was the sun coral.

Strange that they would die that quickly. Do you know if any of the pumps lost power for any amount of time?

if the tank is only 6 weeks old, i would not put any anemone in yet.
