I would do a large water change right away. Something in there isn't right, and doing small changes won't be enough to dilute whatever it is.

I'd do 30g and see how that goes.

Just something to think about, I'd probably do that much as a regular water change
I change 50g every other week, which is about 25%. I'd do more, but my bin is only 50g. I change about 75% in my biocube every two weeks.

Something to look forward to when I go bigger eh!

I think I will increase my amount changed from now on. My levels are always constant, and my lighting is all new with a 250w metal halide and 135w of PC and I have never really had a lot of LPS or leather growth...
