Help I have a big problem with me reef tank and seahorse tank Iââ"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢ve bin doing water change every 2 weeks this morning I woke up and I looked at my tank it was all cloudy and the fish looked like they were panting for breath when I tested the water the Ammonia spiked to 2.0 in my Reef tank and my Seahorse tank I donââ"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢t know what happened nothing had died in any of the tanks I did a 50% water change on the tanks this morning and that did not seem to help. What should I do :(
 
Sounds like you are going through a cycle again. Only things I can suggest are mad water changes. I am not a fan of doing more than 50% a day though. The other thing is to get some Ammonia adsorbing pads at teh LFS.
Ammo Lock wouldn't hurt to lessen the effects of the ammonia on the fish.
 
Sounds like you need to return your seahorses and get some goldfish, you obviously have no idea what your doing and shouldnt be keeping high maintenance animals
 
ok thanks for your info (psycho_clown) I've had my Seahorse for almost a year now so I think I know what i'm doing. its just strange that the ammonia spiked in 2 of my tanks the other tank is fine dont know whats going.
 
Thanks for the valuable input psychoclown...have a good night:wavehand:
