Need some help again lol everything looks to be opening back up very slowly.. I'm getting a very thick brown slime that's holding bubbles on glad and rock and almost looks like it's choking some corals.. Should I blow it off all the rock and coral? I've been doing 10 gal water change everyday and seems to be helping a lot.. Thanks for all the help

Blow it off and keep up on your water changes

Thanks tony.. Also my amonia went up which I've never seen before to a 0.25 on Api test kit and apex ph is reading a 8.44.. mag went to 1200 from 1360 and calcium went to 390 both on pro kit.. Idk if those had something to do with what happen

It's just a diatom bloom... Last stage (usually) and final part of a cycle. Stuck it out, it'll be fine. You can suck it off the sandbed and rocks of you like, but some cleanup critters will also eat it. It'll go away by itself for the most part and then your cycle will be done. I usually hold off on water changes until it's gone, as to let the cycle end sooner. Water changes IMO prolong the cycle. You're in the home stretch, just a few more days now. Good luck
