So I went to my 20 gallon tank and noticed that my zoanthids were not doing so well. I tested the water and everything was great. I then tested the salinity and it was an unbelievable 1.035. I immediately rushed all of my corals to my other tank and begun a water change. I finally got it down to 1.024 but some of my corals, such as my utter chaos and eagle eyes are nearly dead. I tried an iodine treatment but it did not work out. Overall, it wasn't huge, I lost some money from the corals that died, but at least it wasn't all of the corals.

You last post said how expensive this hobby is... what happens if you go on vacation for a week? How will the "salinity" (??) stay at the right number? As for these corals that died - how much did they cost? There is still sooooo much I don't know about these tanks/ecosystems.
