This tank is now 10 days old. I had a bad micro bubble problem from my skimmer at first. I added 50 micron bags on the skimmer and overflow drain. Also slowed my return pump to 50gph. Things cleared up.

Now 7 days after I added the live rock the water column is full of dust. At first I thought it was microbubbles again, but turning off all pumps the dust is still in the water column.

Closer examination and a lot of the dust is swimming around like pods.

Is it possible that I have some sort of massive pod explosion from the new (uncured) live rock?

Probably just a bacteria bloom. It will clear on its own.
