Hello, i am new to these forums and new to salt water aquariums. I just bought a 24 gallon Aquapod Nano-Aquarium. I put about 15 lbs of Coral Sand and 20 Lbs of
live rock in the tank. The tank has been set up for 5 days now, and i currently have 3 blue Damsels living in there.
I have this strange white filmy stuff floating at the top of the tank. I talked to the pet store owner and he told me i needed a protein
skimmer, so i bought a Fission Nano-Skimmer. When i got it set up i found it very difficult to put in the back of my tank where the filter and my heater are housed, so i put it in the front just to see if the
skimmer actually did anything. after 2 days it removed some of the white stuff. Later i talked to another fish store owner and he said that the white stuff is there because my water level is probably to high sow i lowered the level half an inch.
My questions are what is this white stuff floating on the surface? And will lowering the water level help? And do i really need a protein
skimmer to get rid of all the white stuff?
thanks.
