So, I’ve been dealing with the aftermath of dish soap in my tank (it’s creating a foam that is a perfect matrix for algae growth), and poisoning my tank with Bayer after all the coral I added from the frag swap (shrimp dead and haven’t seen a ‘pod in weeks).
So far, I’ve done 3@ 45% water changes (48 gallon DT with another 30 or so I’m the sump). This “theoretically” has me to about a 90% dilution rate. Soap extraction at the skimmer has finally slowed to a crawl and I was able to turn the pump speed back up to the usual setting without overflowing.
I did one of those 45% changes yesterday. I want this nonsense over with... any reason why I shouldn’t do another 45% tomorrow, or is that too soon? The first three changes had 1-2 weeks between them, but this would be two days.
I’m sure it’s fine, but I always feel better when the geniuses confirm
Thanks in advance, geniuses!!
