I got all of my angels from discususa.com - very happy with them.

Sure - the lights are very good, I've been super happy with them. And if anyone is interested, my angels are doing great.. their colors seem to be getting even better.. here's my Blue Zebra (background light off, neutral lighting from the top):

Yes. I have the SerenSun Background Light and SereneSun PRO LED lights on the top, made by Current-USA. I had it set to cycle colors when I was taking the pictures.

I decided to take the plunge and buy some of these online. Here are the ones I bought: Blue Smokey Paraiba Philippine Blue Smokey Phillipine Blue Zebra Pinoy Ghost Panda Koi Not all blue, but the three that are blue are pretty darn blue... I've attached a couple of pics under neutral LED...

I ordered some fish from "AquariumFishSale" (German Blue rams and Red Velvet Swords)... they came in good condition. I'd probably buy from them again.

Thanks for everyone's help... it seems to have mostly resolved itself. I'd say it's at about 95% of where I want it to be clairity-wise... I'll just keep waiting it out since it seems to be getting better on its own without any intervention from me.

You should have them send you a new one... I have it and it's completely silent and never purges air (also have the 2nd generation). Sounds like you have a dud.

That's interesting... it didn't get cloudy until a day or two after I planted the plants... with the eco-complete in there by iteself, the water was crystal clear (and initially with the plants)... but this is good to know, thank you.

Thank you for your help. It's definitely not dust, so it must be bloom. Should I keep adding the Stability to the tank or will it make the bloom worse?

Just for confirmation, this is what it looks like straight-on (visibly cloudy but not horrible): From the side: Does this look like bacterial bloom?
