I added two Anemones to my 125 about 10 days ago.

I checked on my tank this morning when the lights came on and found the tank to be filled with a white haze. Initially, I thought bacterial bloom. But then I noticed white chunks stuck to my Nero 5 and one of the Anemones missing.

So I've done a water change, placed fresh filter media in the tray and dropped in a bag of carbon.

Anything other recommendations?

Assuming the nem, they can make a mess when chopped up but not toxic. Adding high grade carbon or even Chemipure will be of help
