Hi Guy's,
I have basically completed my first viv, it is a 55 gal. tank. I used GS and attached dried Peat to it with Trubond II.
I incorporated a drip wall over a mayan face that I made from Styrofoam that was coated with a product called "Durams rock hard water putty" it is a powder that mixes to a paste that dries to a light sort of grout material, it is supposed to be waterproof.
The problem I am having is the water runs slowly down the statue face and into a small pool that I put at the base of the face, it touches the face and the surrounding BG and peat.
It has been running for 2 days and the water has turned a light shade of yellow and also the face were the water is hitting has begun to discolor.
I have shut down the water pump and can not figure out what is fowling the water, the Trubond or the Duram.
I am attaching pics if anyone can shed some light on this I would greatly appreciate it I would hate to have to fill in the water feature it looks great when running.
