ANYBODY WITH ME !?! :eek::ROFL::banhim:

I like clear water, and I consider my water to be pretty dang clear, maybe not "crystal clear" like air, but clear enough to not bother with fancy diatom filtration and certainly not chemicals. It looks very nice as-is... my wife even told me the tank looks "professional" :grinyes:

After all, is crystal clear water really "natural"? Maybe in cold water mountain streams, but where else really?

HOORAY for non-crystal clear water! :nilly::screwy:
 
hmmm. well i dont use a diatom filter, but i dont need one to have crystal clear water. i mean there are small particles here and there, and microscopic air bubbles...

but i dont really TRY to keep it crystal clear. It just ...is.... as a result of filtration and water changes.


Here's a recent picture. excuse the water and smears on the glass. but you get the idea.

mine has its moments.. however those moments do not last long or happen often.. its always clean and healthy but theres lots of bottom dwellers that like to kick up sand and destroy plants
 
i like it clear

i use to be a clear water freak, but not any more. lol. its nice to have clear water, bt hard to maintain in the long run
 
If you have big fish, your water does not stay clear long.
