I was aware in there early days that they had some issues, eg clunky software.
Maybe things/techno hasn't moved forward.

I run the Duna T5 unit for maybe 8-10 years. And still do.
and the only issue was noisey fans at 3 year mark,
They did replacement them out of warranty,...

Hi ya

If it was me, I would start the system in the new tank.
Then I would slowly transfer the smaller tank over( but not all at once)

The whole tank (surface area) rock, water, sand is ur biological engine.

I think this might prevent another mini cycle...

Tanks with the new dosing adjustment have been settled this last week.

only observation was on Goni not coming out that something was out of whack.
sps all seemed fine.

Hi ya,

It is Very possible the live sand is issue,

Keep up ur basic Zeo dosing,

If possible use felt filter socks, and filter wool (in- before- ontop- what ever works for ya) will help remove,
Might have to change out daily ??
Good idea all the dry...

Hi,

Just an idea

adding a air stone or two to ur tank might also help,
generally “blooms” are excessive of bacteria or plankton in the water, using up all the oxygen- hence the cloudy water.

Hi MN reefer

Did this issue start when you added the sand ?? Or has it been on going ??

can you add pic of tank and of sump with issue.

at the moment the pic to “Me” looks like a bleached (dieing) algae on that rock. (Hints of green here n there)
