Water is clear, sparkling even. But I still have tons of gathered "dirt" or algae. I have passed my OCLT, I am wondering if it's fine dirt my filter can't catch?
I have very fine, claylike dirt that is almost hydrophobic at times. I have a cartridge filter.
I feel like I vacuum it up and it's back only an hour later. I don't have an option to vacuum to waste on my pump, but I was thinking I could pull the tube off once I get the vacuum started to keep up a natural gradient? I worry about how much water I will lose though, if it's even possible due to the length of my vacuum hose.
I have to admit I am not good at recording results on the app, but I can promise I've done a 2-3 day shock with no OCL. ?
