Hello,
I have a 75 gallon tank and I did a 25% water change last night and this morning, it looks very cloudy!
How do you know what is causing it? I read so far on here from others' posts that it could be either a bacteria bloom or Amonia spike. I tested the water and the ammonia level is 0 ppm so that is good. Does that mean it is a bacteria spike? If so, do I need to do anything? What caused a bacteria spike? When I did the water change yesterday, I use a syphon to get the crap out of the rocks and suck up the water that way so that I am getting the most dirtiest water...however, this does stir up some stuff in the water and you don't get it all with the syphon, just the condensed stuff in the gravel... Anwyay, should I do anything or will this go away on its own? Should I be worried? My stock seems to be fine, swimming around like usual - no one seems to be stressed or sick. My stock includes:
2 mollies
1 Betta
4 Dojo loaches
2 Kuhli loaches (gonna get more soon!!)
3 Cories
1 Dwarf frog
5 Red tail minors (tetras)
Any advice, suggestions, tips would be appreciated and welcome! Thank you!!
