Hey everyone! I was wondering if anyone could help me understand why I’m having such bad buildup on my gravel and how I can fix it?! (The pic is just one small corner of my tank btw) I never had this issue when my tank first was up and running (it’s been running for about 5 months now) and now I’m having green & purple buildup all over the gravel like it’s COATED in it and all over my live rock as well (not all of it but some of it) and even on the walls of my tank. This picture was taken literally a few days after I did a water change and full on clean of my gravel and walls of my tank. It builds up so quick!! To give you a quick overview it’s a 40 gallon tank with 8 fish (6 clowns & 2 blue damsels) I have a couple hermits I did have a bottom feeder but he unfortunately died a while ago. I just have a marine land bio wheel filter for it which has been working fine (that I can see) but the guy did say I may have to change it eventually he wasn’t sure if it would be compatible with saltwater so maybe that has something to do with it?!
Any help is greatly appreciated I’m not sure what to do!! Thanks so much! [emoji3590]
