How strong is your flow in the areas that it is growing, or is it only growing in the lower flow areas?

It went down, it's now at 0.12ppm (I know still high). I had it much higher at 0.25ppm and higher.

It's growing in the high flow areas, low flow areas and doesn't seem to be affected. I literally have to scrub it to get it off and it come right back.
