Today I noticed some black film/flakes in the water in my AWC container. I emptied it out and discovered that it was covering the entire container, pump, tubes, etc.
My tank is a black acrylic tank from advanced acrylics, and all that was inside was a hydor koralia, 2 neptune optical sensors, 1 black RO tube attached to a piece of PVC, and 1 white RO tube. I have been using this setup since feb 2019 and just now saw this for the first time. I typically use Tropic Marin pro, but about a month or so ago I switched to Brightwell Neomarine. My instincts tell me that it is either the tank or the Salt. The cables of the pump/sensors seem totally intact.
I know that brightwell neomarine causes heat generation when mixed, I am wondering if this is hot enough to interact with the acrylic and/or cables in some manner?
Anyone else have any ideas?
