So, was all set to salt up, just one more plumbing job on the skimmer feed pump. Looks like I was a bit too keen getting the solvent weld joints back into action, and I've ended up making the water very murky. I can only assume the solvent weld has caused this.
Trying to clean it with a hang on filter, and carbon, but not looking much better after a day on.

What's the opinion, should I flush the lot and refill?

Cheers,

Steve

The good thing is that you only have a tank full of water and not coral! I'd drain/fill it personally.

Third the motion to flush and refill- so much better to be safe than sorry.
