Problem! Need advice
Set up a new tank. Used 85-90% Marco Dry rock and the balance some well established live rock. Everything has been fine, all parameters are perfect. I added some chaeto to the fuge. Come home from work the next day and I have this white slimy crap all over everything. ONLY things in the tank are a cleaner wrasse and some snails.
Any idea what it may be? Tried taking pics but they are not turning out right to show anything. |

sounds to me like a bacteria bloom. should go away within a couple days.
running carbon should help. how long has the tank been set up?

Tank has been set up for about 2 weeks. The rock is from another tank that has been up for a long time. I have just never seen this white slimy snot looking like stuff before. I will be hooking up the carbon reactor tonight. Hope that helps. Thanks for the reply! |
