Recently I added BioPellets Reactor less than a month and I am using Live phyto and live pods. Mainly my SPS reacted. Red planet lossing the skin. Acro loosing Blue color, Pocci doesn't extend much. Other corals like hummer, acans, zoa frogspawn are ok.
Any ideas? Did 20% WC still cloudy. Thx

It's your biopellets reactor, You have bacteria bloom
At this point you will have to remove the biopellets for 2~3 days
And add air pump as the oxygen level will drop and my kill your fishes
Do water change .
U can save your used biopallets media, just wash and dry the media
When you are ready for the biopellets make sure ad enough as directed or a bet less for your total water volium . And make sure 100% all the media tumble
If you using maxi jet model 600 or under you will have to upgraded to minumum 900 but 1200 is the best for this job
