    Maybe. If the leather is big, and is directly upstream of your sps, and if your tank is small. But you'll see it if it's a problem because the sps most directly near the leather will be affected most.

    Remember that even "toxins" from leathers are still food for bacteria, which still feed your corals.

    So I had algae growing in to the slot and spraying everywhere. I scrubbed out the slot with some sandpaper and put some aluminum foil over the top pipe to hopefully prevent algae growing at the very top.

    I checked my tds on my ro/di and it was at 30! So iv gotta replace my filters and di resin. I'm thinking I may have a really bad diatom outbreak and not dinos.

    Well there's definitely no green right now, just brown.

    It's been ten days here's the photos of both sides.





    No green just brown. I'm fighting cyano and diatoms in the DT though.
