I have been fighting with my tank for the last 3 months and have been losing badly. In that time I have dialed in everyone of my levels, got the temp to vary only 3 degrees, and gone over everything else imaginable. Now I found out why I can't win:
While attempting tonight to clean any left over detritus that may have accumulated in my massive overflow I found the cause. A metal paint scraper that was rusted so bad the entire 2 ft area of my overflow was layered in rust. I siphoned everything I could out but a ton of it got in my system (well I am sure it already had anyways) When I was done I turned on a few seios to blow it clean. I can only imagine the abuse my corals are in for now?
Anyone have any insight or ideas...other than hit the front with a baseball bat which is what I am doing my best to refrain from atm.
I can't even believe this is really happening!!!!!!:mad2: +
