Hello,
I honestly did not know where to post this, but here it goes. I have a 55 gallon SW tank with approximately 100 pounds of live rock. I have a phosban150 with ~150mL of Vertex biopellets hooked up to a 600 gph pump (have been running for about 2 weeks), a reef octopus bh100 skimmer, and 2 koralia 2 PH's.
I used to have a canister filter hooked up to this system but was told between the pellets and the rock, the tank does not need to have that hooked up anymore (and in the interest of having less hoses and wires running from my tank, recently disconnected it).
The day after the tank got a little hazy and has stayed that way (day 3 now). Inhabitants have not been affected, and my levels have stayed the same throughout. After calling the LFS they now are saying that the tank probably isnt getting enough water flow, and to hook the canister back up empty. What do you guys think?
Thanks in advance.
