Hi guys!
My saltwater aquarium is 4 months old and everything was looking so good untill this morning.. the water was cloudy and my corals and fish were intoxicated with this transparent slime. I moved them into a secondary aquarium and scrubbed all the rocks and sand. It was everywhere. My filter was full of this stuff.
It’s a 200L aquarium with a sump and an canister filter. I made it this way because I have no room for a bigger sump, this one is 15-20L.
I have a skimmer running 24/24 and a 34w UV light. Nothing is working. I am not carbon dosing, and I didn’t added somthing new to the tank. I have 2 cliwnfish and a daemsel fish from the beginning. The rocks were full of xenia and others soft corals.
amonnia : 0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 15
After I made 60% water change and scrubbed all that slime in a fiew hours he was growing back slowly. Is so confusing.
