The BioClear that I used stated on the bottle "Add 1 tsp-2tbsp, add 1 tsp, wait a day then add more as appropriate"

However, I just added the 2 tbsp right off the bat. Now, I've got floaters, that look kinda scale-y/flaky.

Have you guys had this happen before?

Thanks!!
 
Pics aren't so great but it just looks like hops to me. I don't think it has to do with adding your finings.
 
I saw the result of (way) to much protafloc on a local forum once and that truly looked "wrong". You seem fine.
 
i hope its just hops, cuz I used pellets. thanks for lettin me know tha you saw leaves when using pellets! The bubbles around the leaves first made me think thry were little colonies of micro organisms :eek:
 
The bubbles are most likely dissapating co2 getting stuck to the pellets.
