[bobbimcf]

I have a 75 gallon, it has been set up for 5 weeks. The dsb
has a red slime coat a couple places. Is this part of the cycle?
All water levels are good. Wasnt sure if i should do a water
change now. What is the red slime? What do i need to get to clean it up? I have 35lbs. of lr 7 hermits ,star fish, damsel and
a clown. What clean up crew do i need?

Bob, your tank is very new. There are many different processes a new tank needs to go through in order to be established. This is probably just another stage. be patient and make sure you have good flow.
