run some fresh carbon, and you should be fine.

+1 get a mesh bad and put some carbon in that bad boy, just make sure you wash the carbon off before you use it

Wait how long has this tank been up??

Looks like a water borne algae bloom to me. I would recommend not doing anymore water changes, turn out the lights for 2 days and change the carbon every other day. I had the same thing happen to me a couple years ago and this process cleared it up! It will not harm any thing in your reef but of course the sooner its gone the better.

2 months and it cleared up around 830 last night so it all looks good... thank god haha

the amount of carbon in those biocube filters is pitiful, use some bulk carbon in that chamber instead.
