Cloudy Tank - Think it's still cycling?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
well i added some salt to the water the same day the fish hurt himself and by the next morning he was healed almost all the way.. piranhas are incredibly tough fish. but the water was still cloudy then..

Now it's been 2 days later and the water is FINALLY starting to clear up. It's very noticeable, still cloudy but alot better.

I just tested the water parameters again and this is what i got.

Ammonia - .25
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - .20

The fish still looks ok and his colors are still showing good.

Should i add some ammonia remover media( amrid ) to the aquaclears or is this much ammonia not dangerous yet.


thanks
 
Just let the fitermedia work on it a bit.
 
I've discovered overfeeding is the chief cause of water clarity issues. A day or two of fasting should show some improvement. IMHO

My fish fast every Wednesday, whether they like it or not...
