Well that’s what happened to me.
I didn't use a micron filter to catch the dust.
Now the reactor is practically empty and PB has been pumped into the entire system
This crap is everywhere! I will do a massive water change and I'm thinking of running the diatom.
First question?
1) Should I diatom?
2) Will it harm anything in a SW system?
3) Would I be better off hooking up a canister filter filled with sponges and filter floss?
4) Will PB harm anything? There is no way I will get it all out so will PB harm anything over a long perion of time?

Well now it's settled I was thinking of doing a tear down to move the tank, redesign, install the chiller & CA reactor. So now it looks like that will happen sooner then I thought.
Well at least I will get the chance to rid my system of all the ricordea
