So you had the acro an inch away directly in the powerheads flow? It looks like the tissue is damaged in the area and is sliming up a bit. If the acro was in direct flow you might want to move it away and let it recover. You want good chaotic flow where the polyps move back and forth.

You should also be testing for alkalinity.
