I used API's Accu-Clear and added another filter to my tank and the water cleared up to crystal clear! 

Thanks! If I figure this out, I'll let you know!

I just don't understand while it's still cloudy.. It's been 2 weeks, everywhere I've looked said it should've died down.    Scratching the idea about moving the fish, I don't want to risk it. 

I set up a 29 gallon with 2 black moor goldfish. I cycled the tank first, took about a 7 weeks, with some established media, and after a week or so of putting them in there the water was a little cloudy. I added carbon to my filter, and left it in there for about a week. The water was crystal...

And if so.. how far along is she?

I don't really know the details on what happened, but he had the tank for a year and a half to two years with no problems, so I'm not sure. Thanks for the identification, that seems to be right!

Everything finished out well. I got a BN Pleco, and my friend gave me his last fish, because he had fish but his algae eater died and the tank overran with algae and killed all but this one... Does anyone know what kind of fish this is? 

Alright, my ammonia has started to linger around .25ppm after 3 days of going from 2ppm to 0ppm in 12 hours, and my nitrites have finally reached 0ppm but my pH has crashed. It is around 6, maybe less, 6 is as low as the test goes, I am doing a water change right now. Will the pH crash ruin my...

Awesome! And it's safe to do water like this all the time? Even with fish, just straight from the tap with dechlorinated?
