White Slime

[RenHoek104]

No carbon nor bio pellets.

I did, however, use some Kent Tech-I, Kent Coral Accel and Kent Coral-Vite. I used a half dose only, to be safe.

I was also told by a local reefer, it might be due to the lack of live rock in the tank. Does that make any sense? I only have 15 lbs of live rock in a 30 gallons tank. I think I'll go pick up some more tomorrow morning.

I don't think its for the amount of LR you have (I might be totally wrong) but you definitely need more LR for the system!!! That's just way too less. As far as science goes, less LR = less filtration = more problems given that you don't have other form of denitrifying bacteria host.

The amount of live rock won't be the cause of the slime. The amount of LR has ore to do with the amount of livestock in the tank than the water volume of the tank.

What are the additives you added for? I am not familiar with them. If one of them is a carbon source they could be the cause. (It's not carbon for filtering it's Carbon source like vinegar or Vodka to increase the bacteria in the Aquarium)

Iodine for a better release, read iodine is good for zoas.
Vitae to help give essential amino acids and trace elements.
Accel to help frags grow faster.
Only thing that i can see why i have slime.

What do you have for livestock?
What kind of salt?
Anything die lately?
What's your water change schedule?
