Particles on top of water

[elton092982]

Anybody even have an issue where it looks like big white salt paricles on top of your water surface ? it's looking as if the salt never dissolved, but I havent added salt in months so I don;t know exactly what this is

on top of the acctual water...i have no idea. if its on the tank then its just salt creep this will happen anywhere there is splashing like near filters powerheads etc. or if you have ur hands in the tank and forget to wipe every last drop

I had the same problem, its just bunches of waste from your tank surfacing. All you need is some type of water disturbance on the top like a HOB filter or some HOB skimmer

Yes, I agree.
There is also the possibility that if you have an overflow you are using in the system that the top of the water does not circulate toward it so it makes like a dead spot where everything ends up. Which is where the surface agitation comes into play.
