Ok quick summary about 2.5-3 year old 125 gallon with 40 sump tank. Everything running fine for awhile now, had a cyano issue for awhile wasn’t terrible. I decided to do a big tank maintenance and cleaned my refuge that was loaded up with detritus. Then did a 35% water change after about 2 weeks later I finally wanted to get rid of my cyano so I did chemi clean and got rid of all of it then did another 35%. Tank was looking great for with clean sand for couple days then..... all of sudden whole sand bed was covered in this. I at first thought it was Dino but now I think it’s diatoms. I haven’t done much to combat this problem yet but my first guess is I lost a lot of benefitical bacteria cleaning my refuge out and that I should dose dr Tim’s waste away?
