I have something or multiple things making a mess of my tank. I set the tank up 3 months ago. I bought florida deco live rock for it when I set it up. I have had pest issues ever sense. You wouldnt think there would be too many pests in three pieces of live rock (10 lbs) but there has been. So far i have removed a mantis shrimp, a crab, and i have discovered cirolanid isopods and lost all my fish. I believe there is more evil in the tank as well. The tank has been with out livestock other than coral for 2 months. in the last month I lost my clean up crew. Just the snails not the hermits. Larger corals are getting knocked over. One live rock piece is sometime shifted around. I've taken out each piece of live rock and inspected it closely to see if I could coax something out with no luck. I would like to put fish back in but I feel like there are Cirolanid's still in there and something else causing trouble. The tank is at work so I am not around it at night when all that is creepy comes out. what should I do to:

1. Get rid of the Cirolanids?
2. Seek and remove any other pest making a mess of the tank?
