When the water starts to smell you should def. go to your lfs and get it checked out. Its hard to tell what to do, check your filter and everything. See what your lfs says.

Algea is what I meant to say and I dont have any test kits to test my phosphates so I dont know what it is like but I am PRETTY sure it is high as 757 gone to heaven.
My PH is like threw the roof and my corals are almost dead.
So I moved them in to the 55 and moved my light with them so they have there lighting. I am also going to get the "Hagen Master Test Kit" to test all of the phosphates, NO3, NO2, etc...
Has anyone ever had some experiance with these test kits before??
My fish are doing fine but I moved them in the 55 just to be safe.
My cleaner in the 10 appears fit as a champ but I can't move him anyways because of the two triggers and the Eel in the 55.
Do you think a large water change would help like a 50 percent water change??
I also need some new power heads for the 10 any ideas??
Thx guys for all your help so far.

Hate to say it...but it sounds to me like the tank has crashed. I'd do a 50% waterchange ASAP-get yourself a Salifert test kit, they're the best out..and check all your levels. Keep the livestock out until the tank is re-established.
Once you know what all the levels are we'll be able to help you more,but for now you're pretty well starting from scratch.
As for PH's...Maxi-Jets are the best IMO.

Run fresh carbon for 2 days, then change it and run it for 3 days. This should help with the smell.
Get the PO4 checked and post the score.
Find a poly filter and run that with your carbon.
