I know right?...I'm looking at other options and keeping an open mind. It might be a carbon source (or some other factor) in the tanks which under certain conditions (high humidity and low ventilation in my experience) allows the slime to grow.
The one thing in the back of my mind is when I added a batch of HW Marinemix Reefer salt to the tanks months ago. It clouded like crazy and I did a major water change to eliminate the floating particles that wouldn't go away after a few days.
Within a day or two after the water change everything cleared up. But it makes me wonder if something was in the salt that contaminated the tanks.
