I have searched these threads high and low. I have been SLAMMING and passed my OCLT, BUT I STILL HAVE BROWN DUST. I'm over it and don't know what else to do. It isn't much at all. I really have to search to find it, but it's always there. I vacuum and brush, but it's back within about an hour.
BUT THEN...
I was reading a post and someone mentioned it does not come back when their pump is turned off. So I have had it off for a little over an hour and nothing is appearing. Hallelujah! So is this an indication it's likely not algae? I have used socks in my skimmer. Should I try to attach one to the return jet?
Any ideas? I'm desperate! Again, it isn't very much at all, but since I have thought it is likely algae, I haven't let up on it at all.
