Re: [Tropical Aquaria] Hello everyone cloudy water problem

Hi, This seems to be a fairly common problem lately But I wouldn't worry too
much as this happens as the maturation of the tank takes place, the cloudiness
is probably a bacterial bloom and should settle in a few days. You could do a
20-25% water change to reduce the load on the filter. Hope it soon resolves
itself. If you need more info why not log on to http://www.aquatic-chat.co.uk/
they are very friendly and knowledgable people there, I'm known as the
oldfishkeeper on the site and I'm sure that between us we can help you with any
queries you might have.

I have just set up my new tank 120x40 rena

I have had the tank set up for about three days now. I washed the
gravel out (took forever). have set up the tank as per instructed in
the books provided. I added the bacteria solutions and so on. and
fitted the live plants fed them too. The water was crystal clear, I
set up the x2 filter no problems and off I went. I came down the
next morning and found the water slightly cloudy. this seemed to
clear and the next day it seemed back again.

Is this normal while the tank is becomming established?
