My DIY CO2 diffuser leaked about 5-6oz of the DIY co2 mic into my 36, it is extremely cloudy now. I only have 1 more tank, a 10gal with 1 pea puffer, should I put my 2 3inch plecos in there with her? The plecos are a L201 and a candy stripe, there are also 2 rams and a 3.5 in ctenopoma in the tank. HELP

The diffuser liquid is: 2 cups of sugar, 2 tbsp of yeast, 2 tbsp of molasses, 2 liters of water. Please help

Do a 50% or more water change right now
Do a 50% waterchange in a couple of hours after you finish the first waterchange.
 
Doing that now, but my favorite is my L-201, do you think I could put him in with the 1 pea puffer?

Also I have 2 peices of decent sized driftwood, will they suck up any of the crap that got in?
 
First 50% water change done, still VERY cloudy.
 
The cloudy could well be the yeast blooming. I can't see the driftwood "sucking up" any of this stuff.
You may have a problem with an ammonia spike due to the organic overload. What kind of filter(s)
do you have on this tank?
 
All I have is the Aqueon HOB that came with the tank. I think it is supposed to be for a 50, the tank has been set up for along time and u have a bunch of plants in it, also the fish don't seem too stressed and the tank is becoming less cloudy. Also I added an extra filter pad in to the filter too to aid in clearing it up. I also just realized, IT'S FRIDAY THE 13th!
