tamra&steven hears surf in the shell
cloudy white on tank

i noticed that one wall of my sump is turning cloudy white and is hard to ge off. i have to scrap it off. it is also around the top of my main tank too. i dont know what it could be or how it got there. could it have to do with having high calcium?

Abiotic precipitation of calcium. You are either dosing too much calcium or your mag is too low to handle the amt of ca in your system.
