I had the same problem I vacuumed lightly on the sand bed and got most of it turned my lights off for 3 days did 2 water changes and it died off I also changed from 12 hours of light to 8 and it died off

Ok repositioned power heads did 2 water changes even sifted the sand bed where it was and it came back also cut back on feeding how do I get rid of this stuff will my cuc do anything to it.

It's actual going to be for a pair of seahorses under that I have my fuge/sump.

Here is my 75 gallon RR with diy stand canopy and sump the small tank is for my seahorses

Ok cool yeah there are bubbles starting to form and I'm gonna move the power heads towards it thanks everyone for the help
