Called the power company and they said it will be a while (substation or something) So I grabbed 6 more gallons fuel fromn the barrel to top off the 544D, funnel has a filter screen and she started flowing real slow, shined the flashlight into the funnel and seen what I beleive was Algae floating around. Didnt add more than 4 from can and scrapped the screen, was greenish blackish slime. I have about 200 gallons in the main tank. What do I do, is there anything to add, or will I be changing lots of filters? Do I need to have it dumped and refiltered.

Power is on now at $:30 am, well at least the mornings chores are done
