Hi all,
I was testing the water in my cycling 20-long tonight, when I noticed a weird white buildup on the suction cups of the heater. Here's a photo:
You can see where I rubbed a bit off: it dispersed like a powder, making me think this is some sort of precipitate. I'm doing a fishless cycle with ammonium chloride. Are these deposits a result of that? Any potential problems I should be aware of?
