Clear at night, crappy during the day

@Meyer Jordan I'm having the same [I guess] problem but it's only with my QT, and this is the first time ever that I've had the floating stuff.

I want to know a little more about "P", which I assume is phosphates, but I'm going to start another thread with that in the title. I hate it when a perfectly good explanation gets lost in a thread, then you can never find it again -- or at least I can't. AND, I don't want to hi-jack T's thread.

You are more than welcome to hijack it.

So I got a few pictures to just show what I'm talking about. I know I need to test the water but this is in the morning, and then when I get home from work. As you can see, the water stays clear, not algae soupy green just snotty.

This picture you can see the bottom, that black thing is the hose.

That looks like floating algae. I used to have it too. Comes up in the heat of the day and dies down at night. Mine went away after I added an aerator.
