Help! What water condition would cause invertibrates such as turbo snails, blue legged hermit crabs, and emerald crabs to die within hours of adding them to the tank? My fish are fine, and I have no corals.
My tank is 140 gal Oceanic set up about 5 months ago; 40+ lbs live sand, top of the line lighting system; protein skimmer; 160+ lbs of live rock. Not much living on the live rock for same unknown reason.
I do all of the required water changes, adding of trace elements, test for everything regularly. Just can't seem to find what is killing every invert I put in there.
Any thoughts, similar experiences, etc. would be appreciated!
