if it's on the macros it will choke them out. shake the macros clean of it and then increase the flow in there.

make sure you clean the filter sock every 2-3 days. it may be creating more nitrates than the macro can remove. dont remember if you said wat type of macro you have but if its chaeto be sure to roll the ball over whenever you change your sock to allow other parts of it to get light.
