I moved fish to quarenteen tank .I lost my coral beauty trying get fish out moveing live rock he got crushed .This morning I lost my tang and morsh idol .I didn't have enough time climatize them to hospital tank .As for my main tank I add amonnia lock and doing water change for my coral and hoping for the best .
