Hi everyone, Friday night I had a heater blowup in my 40 gallon breeder tank. Most corals are starting to look a little better but are very PO'D. I lost a Sail fin tang, yellow tang and a Fire shrimp. My biggest issue is that my ammonia has spiked to between .5 and 1.0. Saturday morning I did a 25% water change, added Prime and cleaned all filters and replaced carbon. Checked ammonia and it remained the same. Sunday morning I did another 25% water change and added Prime checked the ammonia again with no changed results. Monday morning did a 10% water change added Prime and still no change. I am going to continue 10% water changes and adding Prime daily, do you have any other suggestions? I'm all ears! Thanks
