    Couple of quick points:
    a. Pods are way down again
    b. Did see large die off in fuge
    1. started with algae on the walls of fuge
    2. seemed like the algae below surface next
    3. hair algae in tank dieing off slowly
    All water parms are right where they need to be but once the algae is gone I am going to poly filter the tank and I will not recommend this to anyone with a reef and fuge. It doesn't seem to affect corals, inverts, or fish, but my turbos are moving slower and I lost one ( the loss maybe to last emerald in tank because it happened in his area and he hates everyone in the tank.
    My advice to all is too use caution with this product and remember that RO does not remove phosphate you also need to di the water and I found my Di not working which was the source of my hair algae.
