Mar 13, 2014 #77 00youknowit00 Aquarium Advice Addict Joined Jun 14, 2011 Messages 1,562 Location Montgomery, Texas Have you stirred anything up at all? Or a powerhead needs adjusting, angle wise?
Mar 13, 2014 #78 OP OP TheGrapeApe Aquarium Advice Freak Joined Feb 24, 2013 Messages 246 In my sump I moved my media reactor yesterday
Mar 13, 2014 #79 00youknowit00 Aquarium Advice Addict Joined Jun 14, 2011 Messages 1,562 Location Montgomery, Texas Well since you just redid the sump you shouldn't have had any detritus that you stirred up. I guess it could be a bacteria bloom too
