Archived from groups: rec>aquaria>freshwater>misc (more info?)

Recently in my 48G tall planted tank, the water has become really
cloudy. It possibly started right before I added this weeks dose of
fertilizer. I did about an approx 20g water change today and that
helped a little, but tonight it's back really cloudy again. The tank
contains a lot of plants, 2 angels, 1 aus. rainbow, 2 CAE's, 1 large
pleco, and 1 blue loach(yellow tail botia). What can I do about this?
Any ideas will be much appreciated.


Tom

Try Acurel F and clean the filters daily. That will clear the water, but
not cure the base problem.
