Hi,

Opps...I forgot to tell you to clean it fairly often (like every couple of hours to a 1/2 hour). So the filter clogged (i.e. likes like it collapsed) ?

Yah, the green water stuff will make your levels look quite nice. This is because the green water is consuming all of the nutrients. This is the same problem with most algae problems...levels look good...tank looks like a green garden.

Say...what type of gravel do you have ? We could build a sand filter with your gravel if it was fine enough. Basically, you pump water through the sand and the sand will trap green particles. Be sure to use a small pump or else....

BTW, your skimmer won't pickup a lot of the green water since it isn't polar particles. Similar to skimmer's inability to skim DT...we have the same problem here.
