Yea....when introduced to the system, the ORP dives down ~40...within 5 minutes the ORP raises to higher levels than before, then stablizes out.
I was able to syphon the sandbed today, I flowed the water through a filter sock and then put the water back in the tank. Its nice a white right now..I wish it would stay that way. I tried using a toothbrush and brushing off some of the brown algae off the rocks but its on there pretty good. You can see in the second picture the gnarly brown algae with signature bubbles coming from it.
I dosed 5 mL this morning and will probably dose another 5 mL before I go to bed tonight.
