    A week and a half ago i switched every thing from a 20 gallon tank to a 55 gallon tank every thing went fine for a week, and then all my rocks started to turn yellow and today when i got home from work there was a yellow film at the top of the tank, not a bunch but enough to notice it and my lether corals have been closed for about 4 days. I did a 10% water change last night. I tried to get pictures of the stuff but couldnt get the camera to work. All my parameters are checking good to i just need to know what is going i would greatly appreciate any input
