    Thanks guys for all your support in such a sad time... I still haven't figured out the cause. I have not had any temp fluctuations and I do not have a grounding probe- can this kill all of my fish. All my corals and inverts are still doing well. And no I don't plan to buy any fish for quite awhile. I thought I had also lost my little yellow watchmen and diamond goby but I found them yesterday alive and well, so not a complete lost but a pretty major one. How come my LFS has not said anything about a grounding probe? I'm just curious.
    Thanks again.. and karma to all of you- I'm trying to get to it but been really busy lately. So if you haven't gotten yet its coming

    When you go to the LFS your getting one opinion,they may have never had that problem or probably doesn't know the whole situation. Here you are getting several opinions.:beer:

    I only had one possible culprit. My killer sally light foot but some how I actaully caught him and returned him to my LFS. But I caught him about 2 weeks before D-Day in my tank happened. I've searched with a red light at night through my tank a few times before and found nothing I hadn't put in my tank myself. I'm just taking it slow. I want to get quite a few water changes in before I even think about a fish- even though my params tested good. I think my cleaner shrimp are lonely.
