Peeleca Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 First, this may be an irrational concern as it could potentially be caused by the pump itself, but I have never noticed this until today. In the return chamber of my sump there is what looks like cooking oil. All of my parameters are normal, I've been using RODI water from the LFS, and instant ocean salt. Here is a video of the odd film. Link to comment
Peeleca Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 I do not. - I just added my first fish to this newly cycled tank. I've had snails in it for a week and they've been acting lively and well. Link to comment
tetraodon Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 thats the distortion caused by the difference in density of water caused by the heater Link to comment

tetraodon Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 you can also though get a residue from oil in foods. not likely seeing that oil is less dense than water and would collect on the surface, not under the surface Link to comment
