well, your a little thin on details. is it a lime water overdose? a bacterial bloom? either way doing a significant water change should help.

Without more info, there's not much I can say. At this point, I would make a bunch of water for a water change, turn off the lights, check all equipment to make sure it's working right, get out anything that is obviously dead, and check the water.

Actually its not as bad as it looks, its only in that front right corner.

As for the tank, I managed to "save" my corals as they were the only lively ones.

As for the fish they are all dead, my tank was fine last night, no cloudiness. All the inverts are dead, it looks like they exploded!

The fish died a horrible death as these stats show.

Amonia: 2.0
Nitrate 5.0
PH: 7.8
Nitrate: 80

This literally happened over night.

How old is the tank? What do you have running on it? Sump? skimmer? kalk reactor? Calcuim reactor? phos reactor?

How many gallons? what kind? What's the livestock list? lighting?
