Pickleballed this morning, came home and hooked up and loaded the trailer, went to my in-laws for more metal, took a bunch of scrap to the scrap yard with my daughter - she made almost $200! Got home and sold an anemone and a Setosa and a couple of Kevin tips that broke off. Went and fueled the truck and stopped by my parents house for 30 minutes or so and just got home. I'm good and alive and tired.
I just bought a Kevin frag from a young lady today, her father looked really mean!

Ok smorgasbord family I need some help. I introduced a chestnut turbo snail, tux urchin, top crown snail 3 trochus snails and a strawberry conch. While I was doing this my rock fell over and caused a very bad cloud of sand and other stuff into the water. This caused the whole tank to become cloudy, when that happened I switched my filter out and turned it up a bit. However all my fish are now hiding and something dosent feel right. The fish all seem to be breathing normally but I can't tell.

I think your fine. I would turn off the pump and wave maker to allow the sand settle quicker.

Alright. I have no GAC, could that be a problem? Also p04 is at .13 when should I expect algae die off?

Just check for ammonia. Otherwise, everything will just settle down again, just like it used to be

Do you guys think I should still do the cheato fuge? Phosbond is working but I haven't tried nitrates in a while. Asked my mom to order a Hanna for it still awaiting a response. I feel like if I do cheato I can handle both at the same time.

GAC? Well your phosphate is getting much better but it’s not the only contributing factor. My phosphate has been running at .25 for as long as I can remember. Parker is a year older than you and was on here all the time this time last year asking the same questions you’ve been asking. He came out the other side, you will to, and look how beautiful his tank is.
