The 90 that I moved from my apt to my brothers house has a ton of little particles floating around. Its not sand because I turned off the Vortechs and they were still everywhere.
I did a WC and they were still floating around.
Also, as for filtration i used to have a 30g long hooked up to this system as a fuge with LR, sand, and Cheato. I had a reactor hooked up to it as well that ran carbon and purigen.
The tank right now has none of that. Im guessing this is the reason for the snow effect?????
I want to build a little fuge out of acrylic for the sump and place it in the skimmer compartment but Im not sure what the best way to place it would be.
The sump is one of these:

The skimmer takes up most of that middle compartment but Id like to build a little "room/compartment" at least for some cheato and rubble rock. Then Ill put media in filter bags and hang those in the sump.
Do you guys think this would help? Any better suggestions? I though about a HOB fuge but he really doesnt have room for one of these.
On a side note, I have noticed is that the salt creep in the sump area is way worse than it was at my apt. The avg. temp is running a bit higher which leads me to think more evap is going on and thats probably the reason for that. Any ideas?
