Blue Skimmate?

Another reefing mystery. Perhaps you have a very light outbreak of green algae?

Can't see anything in the water column. I replaced my carbon this morning

[christyf5]

thats why I said light outbreak. the stuff in our skimmer is pretty concentrated, you would likely not see it in the water column. hopefully the carbon helps though

any chance some "little one" could have put something in the tank or sump???

No little ones here. Plus sump and top of tank are enclosed

I've found that the colour of my skimmate is directly related to the colour of the pellets I feed.

How so?

You change food and the color changes???

Mine is nothing close to my pellet color. I would say coincidence. Not matter what I feed... Green.

Maybe you over feed ha ha. Joke.
