Hi Everyone,
ZeroKoolNYC, is the mucous layer still coming back? The only thing I can think of that would cause a mucous layer to form over the entire coral while you were away is a bacterial bloom; or something else being released into the water that would irritate the goni. Food can sometimes cause a mucous layer, but usually not with cyclopeeze.
Either way, a couple of water changes (using
RO water) should help. Running some fresh carbon should help too.
