    Just saw your post IBMGEEK from a little over a week ago. You think that it was cal. precip. I have a 90 gal as well, corner over flow and a 20 gal custom sump. Tank has been up and running for about 5 months now. I think that they have always been in my water I had some micro bubbles but when I built my sump with some baffles it took them away. I thought that it was the salt I was using Red Sea Coral Pro I have never used salt with so much added to it in the past (IO IN OTHER TANKS IN PAST). I then went out and got Tropic Marin did a 10 gal water change a little over a week ago no differnce. Have tested my levels with Salifert test kits and all seem good. I have suger sand bed what do you have?

    cal. 425 mag. 1250 ph. 8.3 alk. 15 I have had a 55 gal in the past and used IO salt with r.o. water. It was crystal clear. I now use r.o./d.i. filter and tropic marin. The only thing I have not done that people say is to airate my water which I have never done in the past with just r.o. water and I.O. salt. This is killing me things going well in my tank and can't see them clearly. Somebody has to know!!!!
