Chemipure blue

[Patrick]

I changed a bag of new chemipure blue, activated carbon and rowaphos. Overnight water turned cloudy with Xenia die off affecting LPS. Leathers and mushrooms all shrunk GPS closed. Anyone has the same experience?

Threw out Xenia and LPS changed 20% water. Water cleared up now but corals still not opening. Anything else I can do?

By the way, did you wash the media (chemipure blue, activated carbon and rowaphos) with RO/DI water or tank water before putting in?

I suspect your tank 

1) have a ammonia spark due to removal of old media

or

2) putting new media without washing enough
