      Water suddenly foggy

      Tank has been running great and I just fed it and now the whole display tank is really foggy. And a certain macro algae in the bottom looks like it's turning asexual. But it was all within a matter of like 20 minutes.

      My tank went foggy over night a little while back. Mine was the result of my 2 year old daughter putting gold fish crackers in the sump though. I just did a water 20% water change, changed the carbon and made sure my skimmer was working properly. Cleared up in a few days without any damage.

      Probably not a huge issue unless the corals don't look well. Do a water change and run fresh carbon if your concerned. As for that macro, i'd lose it or isolate in a refugium, that stuff can trash a tank and overgrow everything.

      All the livestock looks normal and everything is running properly. The macro is only in the fuge. I took all out that looked like it was goin asexual. Alright I'll do the water change and hope it was just a fluke or something.

      what macro are you using? Some varities are more prone to causing problems. Cheato tends to be the most stable of the bunch and why it is so popular.
