Cloudy Water
Over the past few days I have noticed that my water is a bit cloudy. It isn't too bad, but it definatly noticable. Over the past month I have ran Purigen, and lastnight I removed the purigen and added SeaGel (phosphate remover). I haven't ran straight carbon since I ran Purigen.
Any ideas? Thanks. Current Aquarium(s) Description: 55 gallon/20 gallon sump/Aquactinics TX5/LPS/SPS Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: 3 years Other Intrests: My truck, wakeboarding, and golf. I also enjoy working....

Re: Cloudy Water
Removing the Purigen may have cause a bacteria bloom.That'd be my guess.

Re: Cloudy Water
Nope, it was cloudy before I removed the purigen.

Re: Cloudy Water
how are the parameters checking out? did you do anything to disturb the tank recently? additives like buffer?

Re: Cloudy Water
adding kalk can make things cloudy. If is has been like that for just the day you added it, that could be it. especially if you used the powder and it didn't mix wellin RO water first. It can be that way for two-three days.
