Thanks for your response on this. I am making plans on the removal of the Lava Rock ( man is this going to change the tank big time i will need to go get more Live Rock ) As far as the Xenia I dont know if it was the Nitrate or not but all of Waveing Hand Xenia I had is dead and gone and as for...

oh yes im sure of the tests I even took a sample to my LPS and had them do a test also, all of my other tests come back good.

I think my Pencile Urchin may have got sick and close to dieing and released a toxin in my water that is killing off all of my fish. Does any one know if what i heard about this Urchin is true that when they die they do release a toxin in the water? and what do i do now!!! Please help
