Do parasite meds make cloudy water?

[Tigerfish908]

I turned my 10g growout into a hospital tank last night and treated with Jungle parasite clear tabs. Now my water is cloudy?? The little Ntt is still hangin in there.

I did a 50% water change and added meds again, and now the water is cloudy again?

Anyone know

ya i just treated my 55 with that stuff, it does cloud the water a lil, what you gotta do is wait 24 hours after the last time you put the tabs in, and put your carbon filter back in, then do a 30 percent water change, and after a couple hours it will clear up.

some do some dont.. what does the package say?

Doesn't say it will cloud water...

Yes...Jungle tabs (fizzies) will cloud the water. This will go away with subsequent water changes.

yeah. usually packages day to do water changes along with it to clear it up, and some cloud from the dead bacteria and parasites. [ich meds and other also suggest the same thing]
