Help!! Please!!

[Fish_Lover99]

Hey guys I need some help so my lps are shriveled up to point where you can see the skeleton and my colonie of birdsnest has died and bleached my parameters:
Salt 1.026
Nitrate 10-20
Calcium 500+
Dkh 10
Ammonia-don't test for
The tank is 40g and is 3 1/2 months old live stock includes
1 Royal Gramma
2 clownfish
1 goby
1 pistol shrimp
Do you guys have any ideas?

If you can see the Skeletons on your LPS and your SPS are dead,I would say your tank is crashing.

I would agree. Loosing one life happens for all kinds of different reasons. Loosing colonies means the system is compromised in some way. Anything oosing from the bases of the LPS?

I would start doing some large water changes

Nothing is oozing from the base of the lps

I agree. Nothing to lose at this point and if it is something in the water than let's try replenishing that first. I know your frustrated. Give that a go and see if anything perks up in 48 hours. If you do see any of the bases of the LPS expelling something it likely is a bad sign of the end of a life.

luck

Tank is 3 months old, or you started adding corals 3 months ago after tank had cycled w/ stable parameters and little to no algae or dinos?
By what means have you been dosing alk/Ca/Mg?

Check for ammonia, it can cause rapid deterioration.

Also were corals healthy at any point or they started to deteriorate from the first day you added them. If this is the case, tank is simply not mature enough.

I will have to get a test kit later today. But my corals looked all healthy and then my birdsnest just sorta died and everything else followed my fish seem to be fine though maybe I will have to check nitrates again
