If you didn't clean the stones good enough, it could be that.

Other than that, water changes? Not sure sorry

is it a newly setup tank?
if so i had this problem.
i have just set up my tank and didnt wash the gravel,stones properly.
the water was cloudy for days.i ended up having to empty the tank clean the gravel etc and start again and now my water is crystal clear.lesson learned

How did you clean the filter, i take you only used old tank water, not tap water?

Did you test the stones to see if they were inert before you put them in?

nope its not a newly set up tank its been running since last year

i didnt test the stones but i just took them out of the tank now

when i clean the tank out i use tap water to fill the tank back up

now i only got a peice of bogwood and 7 fake plants in the tank

Did you treat the tapwater before adding it?
