Is This A Bacterial Bloom?

[cheerycherry]

I havent done anything to the tank whatsoever today but water has gone quite cloudy today.could this be a bacterial bloom? but bare in mind this will be week 5 into fishless cycle.looks really yuk

Also not sure if this has anything to do with it but today only white stuff is growing all over the glass and filter.Looks like algae type stuff but its white lol??

up until now the water has been crystal clear and no algae anywhere in the tank so im miffed

Did put some mature filter media in yesterday so would this be anything to do with it?

that might just be particles from the mature filter flowing into the water..
leave it a couple days to see if it clears up

More than likely a bloom, the white stuff is fairly normal, usually grows on the rubber suctions things on the heaters, filters etc (least it does in my tanks on a fishless cycle), if its also on the glass, just wipe it off.

Should die down in a couple of days.
