THANKS, I'll keep up with it and update anytime I can.

Also blow out your rocks daily and vacuum the detritus very often. Maybe vacuum through a filter sock trapping the dirt and pour the clean water back in the tank. Not necessarily doing a water change but removing the dirt.

Keeping up with it in the 65, the 10 blew way out of control over the weekend. My refugium pump died and the brown algae is everywhere now.... yay.

taggin,,I ve had some short clear translucent velvety looking coating over my over flow and tank walls,,It comes and goes but think it is somewhat related to dosing amino supplements,,I use Zeo LPS for amino supps but have strayed from it..
I dont know if it connected here but just an observation when I dosed amino supps,,,especially the Zeo LPS brand

Bumping this tread as I have been fighting this stuff. I've read all of the details but would really like to see if anyone can identify what exactly this white fuzz actually is.
