Yeast Infection?

[tetraman]

I just made a yeast-based soda bottle CO2 system. Last night while setting it up I had a bit of a siphoning problem at first, and I think a small amount of the mixture got in the tank. A few minutes ago I looked at the tank and it was quite cloudy and the fish were breathing heavily. I put some declouder in in case it helps. What should I do?!

A water change asap!

On it. Problem is that it's 40 gallons so I can only change so much.

As hard as it is, I think you need to get as close as you can to a full water change. The warm water is ideal for that yeast

and when you make up the next batch have it run in a bucket of water for a few hours first, so that if it is going to leak it will do so in the bucket and not in the tank

this happend to me more times than i care to remeber till Devuk gave me this peice of valuable advice
