Hey guys as the title says I just wanted some opinions on my tank new situations.
A) my tank is slightly cloudy, not major but noticeable from the side. (See pictures)
I have tried using different filter socks, I have performed two 30% water changes in the last month and skimmed wet for a while. I started running GFO and carbon a few days prior to the cloudiness so I tried changing the flow through both and then I decided to take them offline for 5 days... Still the same (I did get some hair algae as a result though :?) I do tinge the media with a few gallons before attaching to my tanks. Oh yeah and I also switched to feeding every other day. Any opinions on what is up? Could it just be because my tank is immature? I have also started to see loads of pods on the glass too.
B) please identify critter in the picture below, it is in a tube at the base of my open brain. It has red tentacle like things that come out every now and then. Sort of looks like a feather duster. It is fixed in place.
Parameters: ph- 8.2, trite trate phos ammonia all 0, temp 78 and salinity is at 1.024 I have two clowns and a watchmen gobie, two turbos and a bunch of nasarious snails.
Thanks all!
