my girlfreind dropped a bottle of windex in my tank

[btwk12]

my girlfreind drooped a bottle of windex in my tank and she couldnt get ahold of me last night. so she tried to drain all the water out and fix it her self not knowing one thing about a saltwater tank. by time i got home all my fish and coral were dead i checked my salinity in the tank and it wouldnt even read any salt at all. i lost a foxface,2 maroon clowns, a scooter blennie, and a green chromis. my corals i lost were frogspawn, hammer,numerous zoas and mushrooms,and a 6-7 inch anemone all my liverock is probably deadrock now i have nowhere to get salt my lfs is not open today i had about 60 pounds of live rock.

What did she do, drain all of the sw out and then fill it with regular water?

 

[btwk12]

yea and i had enough salt for about 15-20 gallons and she filled my whole tank up to the top and its a 55 and dumped the salt in. i think she took all the fish and corals out and put them in a bucket of fresh water while she was doin all that im not sure i still havent talked to her she left and went to stay at her moms she knew it wasnt gonna be nice when i seen it

 

[btwk12]

i figured it all up and its about $1400 and a whole year down the drain

For once in my life I'm speechless........I truly don't know what I would do if my husband did something like that...I am constantly telling him about how on these boards they talk about the dangers of stuff getting in the tank....

 

[meowzer]

[daphne]

Are you going to start all over again?
