Good Morning,

UPDATE, @maleks.reef & @Randy Holmes-Farley it looks like I found a part of my issue with the high metal results. I checked all equipment and found that the magnets that are on the wet side of my JBJ 300 Watt True Temp Heater were rusting and leaching into the refugium.

Anyone that owns one of these heater, I suggest you double check the magnets that hold the heater.

Thank you for all of your help with this.
