Hello all,
Hoping to get a little guidance. My 90 just finished cycling (using instant ocean to cycle the tank). Since the cycle my water column has what looks like millions of tiny floating particles. I know this my sound crazy but the water looks crystal clear from a distance until I get close up the I notice the particles. Just a little more info on my system. I'm using a 50gal/day RO/DI system this thing is brand new with only 200 gal on it so far. I put some filter floss and 1 micron filters in one of my sump chambers in an attempt top capture this to no avail. I did a 30 gal water change this morning no improvement. I am currently running a DSB with a fine sand. There is no livestock in the tank(about to order a CUC). Not sure if these particles are coming from the sandbed or does Instant Ocean have a reputation for this. If anyone can assist me in identifying the rootcause and/or eliminating these I'll be really grateful.
