WOAH!! I am seriously impressed!

Clear slime mats tend to be bacterial. Do you run biopellets, or do you dose any source of carbon?

That seems to be the common thread in what this is. Bacterial. But we don't carbon dose or run bio pellets. Closest thing is seachem mattrix which us rinsed every 3 months to remove detritus. I am going to get a larger return pump & see if increased circulation helps. Although I am reluctant to do this as I always have 0.00 nitrates so the flow through sump at moment is working really well to consume nutrients. Just really don't know what to do from here. It came back 2 days after the video ! Urghhh.
