I think i may have a bigger problem now, last night before bed i did see a slight increase in the protine film on the top of the tank If i had to describe it i would say its a Clear film, oily to the touch and from what i can smell has no oder. Tonight when i got home from school its has more then doubled in thickness.
i will tell you what i have done that may have cause this
1)i started doing PWC every 4 days to help reduce the Algae inside of the aquarium. i change 5g at a time with petcos 100% natural real ocean water.
2) have added another maxi-jet 600 to the aquarium pointed at the surface 24hrs a day
3)added a cup and a half of chemical filtration (Reef carbon) from my LFS
4)Set my Protein skimmer back up and runs all day every day
5)cut my feeding back to once every 3 days
6)completely cut out the lights except for when i feed the fish and then their only on for about 30 min
What can i try now? Any suggestions what could be doing this? i had no problem with this film when the tank was dirty and was not being taken care of. I thinks its something i must have done to cause this.
thanks
Michael
