My paramaters have been good with no cause for alarm for quite a while...
Two days ago, everything checked out perfect.
Tonight, though, I checked and I've got all kinds of salt creep, my skimmer cup has filled with nothing, the anemone and sea apple are scooting around the tank, and I've got these readings:
Nitrate 35
Nitrite 0
Alkalinity >300
pH 8.4
Amm 2
Specific Gravity 1.027
Temperature 75
Inside the 55gal tank: live rock, caulerpa prolifera (some turning red and clear), chaeto, sea grapes, cleaner and coral banded shrimp, serpent stars, 6-legged magenta star and a 6-line. Water levels are normal.
This is very strange.
Any ideas / suggestions? (the sea apple stays!!!).
Water change scheduled for Sunday.
