Just a simple question... I am cycling a 15 gallon nano tank. For the first
couple of months, I just let it run without anything in it, and then I added two mollies. But the water never has lost it's whitish,cloudy look to the water. I have crushed coral for a substrate. Now that I have added 130 watts of proper Compact Floresent lighting to the tank, there is green algae growing on the glass and bottom. I was told not to do a water change becaues I will screw up the cycling process. What do you think is making the water remain cloudy for these long months? I don't have all the test kits yet, but I do have a ph and nitrate and everything seems fine. One thing I have now is babies... the two mollies have had babies... 15 are still alive. I'm also thinking that I should remove the babies because that might be putting too much of a bioload on the cycling tank, they are roughly 1 inch long now. I have had tanks for years by the way, but all freshwater. I have an 80 gallon, 15 gallon and 1 gallon setup, but this is my first nano tank setup, so untill I find out what is causing the cloudy water, I don't want to add any coral yet. If you have any idea as to what to check/change to remove the cloudiness from my tank, please reply. thanks in advance. Caper Dartmouth, Nova Scotia |
