Hi all im having a problem with the water quility, it is a new set up of 4 weeks and and the water has suddenly gone extremley misty.
I had very bad alge and did a water chane of 25% yesterday and give the inside a good scrub as well as the filters the water is now very dirty and misty to a point you can not see the fish when they swim to the back i have 6 platies and 6 tetras feeding once a day in a 125 liter tank could anyone give me some advise as one of the tetras died last night and im worried the others will follow suit. Thanks |

I agree with nelly's post.
Those are the right questions to start getting danny's problems sorted out. |
