Hi all, few weeks ago a friend of mine ask me for help to install and setup his new S 650.
After some afternoons and lunch times of work, assamble is complete.
Last friday (4 days ago) a fresh water run test was made and everything worked just fine.
Buuut.... he is kind of a impatience guy so without any planning at all he decided that we add salt and sand to the tank. Rock is not there yet.
First of all, I must say, I was not agree with him, but, is his tank, not mine.
We added salt and let the pumps work couple of hours to disolve it, 1.025 reach according to refractometer.
The big problem came when he decided to pour 7 bags of caribsea sand from water surface. The sand storm begun!
Today, after 4 days, water is still white and sand all over the place. We first let pumps running to make filtration works to clear the water, after two days with no change, pump were turned off for another two days. But no change at all....
So.... what to do!? Please help.
