Where do I start??? I have quite a few questions to try to put into one thread.
First off, what would this scum be floating on top of the water? It is kinda browny red... we had a diatom bloom last week that has cleaned up nicely.
One thing I have noticed on some of our live rock are little white dots which resemble barnicles almost I would think, they are about the size of a pin head with a little black spot in the middle. Is this something that I should worry about?
Then third, I have a beautiful purple algea/moss like substance which looks like velvet on one of my smaller pieces of LR. Is this O.K. or should we be cleaning some of that off?
All of my levels are O.K. I just checked my nitrate/ite levels and they are both reading 0.
Should I be worried? My husband is going to do a water change tomorrow, is that all we should be doing?
Oh yeah, we do have a protein skimmer to...
Thanks
