Cloudy Water

[lokkochaa]

It won't take too long and it will be chrystal clear again. My water was a little merky as someone else said about 24hrs and all fish survived. I gently hoover over the top of the sand about once every 2 weeks and have a horseface loach who does a good job in turning the sand over and keeping it clean

Argh its been 6/7 hours and its still as cloudy as it was!

Ive put some more "floss" filter medium in the filter but its not helping any ideas anyone?

ARGH!!!! What a nightmare!

Tank did not clear last night and after deciding to take the whole lot out and start again i discovered 2 fish were dead

Took all the fish out, water and sand, made a quick trip to DIY shop to get new sand, after HOURS of cleaning it, putting it in the tank (blowing a heater) and redecorating the tank is now reinhabited and clearing up nicely.

I started at 10am and its now 3:30pm, it better look DAMN GOOD lol
