I just bought a MJ- 1200, and hooked up my cal reactor, and 5 minutes later.. my tank is cloudy! Is this normal?
Thanks

What kind of media did you use and what kind of flow rate from the reactor to the sump......I found it best to start with a slow drip rate for my effeluent and work up from there...never had a issue with cloudiness at all...:thinking:

No i didnt rinse the media.
I am using ARM aragonite media. I guess that the dust.. ect, from not rinsing the media is what lead to this.. but i hope this will not affect anything.

Strange....the ARM media I used is moist/wet in the container.....no need to rinse it. :thinking:

Hmmm, sounds like maybe somebody had a little accident in your ARM jug:scared:
