Calupera going sexual
Well my tank clouded up for the 2nd time and I thought I had picked out all the other algae from the Chaeto when I got it but I guess I didn't and there is slimy, clearish white stuff everywhere and display is cloudy and the skimmer has filled up 3 times today already.
Is there anything else I should worry about or just keep changing out the skimmer cup when it fills up and let it run its course... I have already stopped the autotopoff for now and I am topping off with fresh saltwater since a small drop was already caused by so much skimmate coming out wet. I also did a 5g water change to help out. Thanks in advance...

Already changed that out in a reactor
 Anything else I should worry about or just wait for it to clear...
