FishFace NJ build

Did you try it ?
Not yet. I'm still scrubbing the grout. I do about 4-5 hours per day. I have 6 days under my belt.
 
Yesterday I did a water change, clean filter socks and cleaned out the skimmer in anticipation of my delivery today.

I bought 80 oz of Ocean Silt..sludge...what ever you want to call it...IT STINKES! Ohhh the smell!

My 21 year old son walked into my room where the tank is setup. He said "did the sewage backup? There must be something wrong with the septic tank"

Why you ask would she buy this stuff? I have been having cyano for months and it won’t go away. So I am trying it to see if it will help.

Do you know what else stinks Diana?

 
Well it looks like 💩! There is sooo much cyano on the sand but no where else. I replaced all of my filters on the RODI unit last night except for the RO membrane, and that is coming Wednesday. Making water now. Hopefully I have time today to clean the powerheads since there is a bit of green hair algae on it.

PO4 (0.03 and NO3 (25) are still holding steady. Still only running ROX carbon in the reactor.

Retirement coming up soon for you? Hope you have a great Thursday!

One more year to go! Hope your Thursday is great too!
 
Good morning Diana , I wonder if your sand might need to be sucked up and strained ? I always suction and strain my sand at every water change .
A cornucopia full of bristle worms would help too! We know how much you love em’
 
Diana don't worry I have the same but not on sand only comes over glass every time. Using UV /nutrient levels are good.Lighting has been shortened . Tested ro water is at 0 . I've never had this problem but this is the first time I have used dry rock never again you can not beat live rock . Is it miracle mud that your going to try ? . Good luck going forward hope you beat it
