I don't care if my water is crystal clear

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I used one of these for my DIY wet/dry and my water is Extra Cripsy....
 
clear FTW. nothing looks uglier than a tank with cloudy water
 
CRISPY water to me is like taking pride in ur work. Im a electrician so im used to taking pride in doing a clean job. Wires bent perfectly and etc....

Now we all now it will be times when its not crispy, like right after a WC, feeding time, and etc.. but cloudy water is unacceptable POINT BLANK!! Not being crispy doesnt mean anything is off far as the fish goes but "COM' ON SON" !!!!!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~IF IT AINT CRISPY~~~~~~~~~~~~IT AINT RIGHT~~~~~~~~~~~~~

theres 5 feet of water between the camera and the fish...

Now thats CRISPY!!!
 
Yea, I agree with the rice crispy crowd if you can get it there with the equipment you have...lol
If you can't then it's time to invest some time and money into equipment to get it there if you care, but if you can't or don't want to...as long as you maintain healthy fish n you're happy..."you're there." To each there own...
