Re: Silicon in sump and water???

1. Turn off the return and drain the sump.
2. I wouldn't wait any less than the 24 hours needed to cure.
3. I wouldn't do this.

I am extremely doubtful that's a diatom issue. All cases of diatoms I've seen are much lighter in color and not encrusting or hard.

I would reccomend doing this, only in a new bucket of saltwater on any rocks you can remove. If you use one bucket for rinsing the cleaned rocks and one for removing the algae you can help keep it...

A hang on back overflow box would work. Try searching for them in google and avoid Aqua-C brand overflow boxes.

I would just drain the tank and install a clear brace. At the risk of having 45 gallons worth of saltwater on the floor it wouldn't be worth trying with it filled.

Your tank is pretty immature, so I wouldn't be very concerned at this point. If it's rust colored algae it's probably diatoms.
