I wonder what it will take to get a tank like that back to normal or perhaps its at a point of no return.

massive water changes and leaving lights off for a few days would help

is that really ur tank robert ?
This should have been your question. Not so fast with the big water changes and lights off. Take it easy. First of all are you using RODI water for mixing salt? And it's time to get your hands dirty. Get an old tooth brush and start brushing.

That hair is too long for Turbos.. Sea hare, and lots of hand work...

Nope, not my tank. Thankfully, I just found the pic somewheres and was amazed how a tank got like that.

not hard, and thought i had seen urreal tank on RC, using tap water, not doing wc, over feeding, old bulbs. several things can lead to a tank looking like that quickly

It's hard to keep a tank in good condition it can end up like the one in pic. Quickly if neglected

I wouldn't even bother trying to do water changes on a tank that bad just take out the rock scrub it and cook it for a while, dump all the water and start fresh. A tank doesn't like THAT over night. Must have been at least a month of running old bulbs running dirty unfilter water etc. But it's not your tank so...
Could be worse
This isn't my tank btw.
