So if you used red flake.... Your skimmate is red?

I used red flakes (prime reef) for about two years. Still green.


Interesting.

How is it today Marko?

I adjusted it. It's thick and black

To me it looks like some algae concentrated in there. Maybe some green/blue cyanobacterias? They can be quite colorful. As long as there is none in the water that is concentrated enough to be visible I would not worry.

Are you dosing any carbon?

Just put a new bag in yesterday

I would suspect some algae in your tank sporulated which would also explain why your skimmer is wetter then usual

No I mean like dosing vodka or other carbon source
