New Tank Owner Requires Help!

[menacer]

Hi guys, glad to now be a member of this forum.

I recently brought the fish box X 48 litre

This tank comes with the following:

Gravel
Interpet internal power filter PF1
Interpet filter start - water treatment
Interpet Delta Therm
Tapsafe

And some other little bits and pieces

I have set up the tank the filter and heater are in place and the thermometer is reading 25 c

The water appears a little bit cloudy

Is there anything you could advise? The filter has a bubble option should it be active or not? If its off dust starts to appear on the water surface

Thanks in advance

Adam
