    I had an outbreak of this about 2 months after my cycle. My problem was not overfeeding or flow, but leaving my lights on to long. i cut them back and it seemed to help out alot.

    I use tap water... Amonia,nitrate,nitrite are 0 with the tap water. And all of the lfs say that San Antonio water is ok to use as long as it's dechlorinated!

    Will running the second return pump on a red sea max cause any problems...???
