It still looks fairly vibrant - but I also don't have the "before" image as a comparison. White spots usually appear on mine whenever something drops sand or other debris on it for a prolonged period of time.

how is the flow in the tank? Do you dose any aminos?
I have a vortech mp10 and it’s at pulsing mode which is at 52%. Also I am currently not dosing aminos because I am battling Dino’s at the moment.
