rekian Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 The tank turn cloudy one day after I add in the bacteria culture (powder form), leaving only the pump on and off skimmer. Cloudiness due to bacteria bloom? Too much dead organism in the tank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
