Bad news - my "copepods" are sea lice.
Who made this ID ?

Worse news - My new pump isn't working like I planned. The water level is almost over the top of the tank and no matter how much I scoop out and put in the sump it keeps filling up. But I have to have a high level in the sump to cover the pump! What do I do???
Is this a reef ready predrilled tank ? If so how large are the bulkheads ? Which pump are you using and how many gph ?

Really really terrible news - the LFS tested my water and said he had never seen ammonia levels so high. He said the live rock would die if I didn't get it out of the tank. He sent me home with ammolock, 3 fluval ammonia remover bags, and 3 poly filters that pull ammonia from the water.
That happens and it just means that there was some dieoff from the rock so in about a month it should completely cycle, so wait on any fish additions until your ammonia is 0>
