Thank you. It makes me sad, but as long as I can save some of the heads I won't be as upset about it. I mean, **** happens, but it still sucks....
No pics. My POS camera takes awful macro shots. The best way I can describe it is there was some colored flesh within the ridges of the skeleton....
I was going to cut my losses, but figured since half of it is gone, it couldn't hurt to frag the dead heads off. I went about one head in from where...

Thanks for the info. I will stop for some vinegar on my way home from work.
I'm not saying your wrong and will check for clogs when I get home, but wouldn't the skimmer consistently overflow if it was clogged? Would a 24...
I'll do that tonight. Its time for a good cleaning anyway.Will the vinegar take care of the salt creep as well?
I haven't done anything different to the tank before this happened. About a month ago I switched to powdered supplements as opposed to liquid, but I...
I have been running a SWC Extreme Cone 160 for about 8 months now. This past week it randomly overflows. I turn it off, empty the cup of the clear...
