I started dosing Coral Snow last week. I don't have a sump so no filter sock. I do have a canister filter though and I recently changed the sponges. When I turned the canister filter back on, a bunch of big white particles came shooting out of the return. At first I thought it was sponge particles, so I put my old sponges back in and ran the return into a 50mic 7" filter sock for a couple of hours and thought I was good. A few days later, I dosed more Coral Snow and the same thing happened. I thought that maybe the Coral snow reacted with something caked in the lines of my canister filter and knocked them loose so I did the filter sock thing again. Yesterday, I dosed Coral Snow again and the same thing happened. It finally dawned on me that it is the Coral Snow that I am seeing. Am I correct?
