Maybe this will help you:
I have a wp40 in my tank running at 18V so its plenty of flow. I have already disposed the xenia as soon as I saw the goos coming out. Still no clue what caused it

Yah I also started very slow. Maybe it wasn't the biopellets. But I am being very septical since I like my tank running with the least "external media" so I will stick to that. Less parameters to care about = less headache :P
