Hi

My tanks has been running for a couple of month now and everything seemed to be going ok.

All my levels are fine and the tank is not overstocked.

I have an Elite 60L tank, and am using the filter that came with that.

The problem I have is that although my levels are all fine, the water is actually really quite dirty.
There appears to be "waste" floating in the tank.
I have been using a syphon to clean the sand, and thought I was doing a decent job, but I guess i'm not.

How can I clean this water?
I've tried doing water changes but it doesnt seem to be getting any cleaner?

Hoi-a-Hoi

i use carbon filters inside my filter!

this seems to sort the dirty waters issues out very well! sure other people will have some advice, hope it helps :) :blush:
