and I think I found my issue? A very low electrical current in the water column.
I've been getting these little cuts at work lately on my hands that would burn when I stuck them in my tank. Well today was no different while I was cleaning my glass with a razor blade. I then went to reposition my pump in my salt mix station, expecting the same burning sting, but it didn't happen. Weird? Stuck my hand in my QT, didn't happen. Back to the DT? Happened again and never subsided. I started unplugging pumps 1 by 1 and when I got to my mj900 that keeps motion in my sump....It instantly stopped stinging! I put that thing in there a few months back to help with detritus! About that time my acan started receding, I lost half my colony of duncans as of late. I've been pulling these **** coral and dipping them looking for pest over and over and over for the last few weeks never finding anything! I'm just glad it wasn't my return, that woulda been pricey.
It'll be interesting to see if they turn around. Strangely my fish have seem unaffected.
Pretty stupid on my part but figured id share....incase anyone else is pretty stupid too :smile (2): I'm going to look into a grounding rod.
