I NEED SOME HELP WITH MY 55GAL REEF TANK. EVERY THING IN MY TANK WAS FINE, THEN I WENT ON VACATION FOR A WEEK AND A HALF. WHEN I GOT BACK MY CORALS AND THE WHOLE TANK WHERE COVERED IN WHAT I THINK IS CYNO (GREEN NOT RED). I PHYSICALLY REMOVED AS MUCH AS I COULD THEN RAN SOME WATER TESTS. PH WAS LOW AND THE NITRATE WAS OFF THE ROOF. DID SOME WATER CHANGES AND UPED THE PH. SOME OF THE CORALS LOOK FINE ( LEATHER, CLAM, ALVEOPORA,SOME MUSHROOMS) SOME OF THE OTHERS ARE STILL DOING POOR AND MIGHT BE DYING (LARGE LEATHER, TORCH CORAL, FROG SPAWN, STAR POYLPS, AND ALL MY SNAILS). THE WATER IS ALMOST BACK TO NORMAL BUT THE CORALS AREN'T EVEN CLOSE. THE TEMPERATURE ALSO MIGHT HAVE HIT 80 A COUPLE OF DAYS ( THE WIFE TURNED THE AC IN THE HOUSE OFF!) ANY HELP OR SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE APPRICIATED.
