Is a bacterial bloom just like a mini cycle? BTW what causes the tank to have a bacterial bloom?

 

[Irbanjaxed]

A bacterial bloom is when the bacteria in the tank multiplies at such a high rate and in such high numbers that they can cloud the water

up your water changes to 50% every week, keep an eye on the parameters and throw in that powerhead. should be fine.

alright that sounds like a start to an end of cloudiness lol thanx austin ....... what about the stock i probably should be downsizing?

 

[Irbanjaxed]

[Austin]

probably upgrade soon (this is mfk, we don't downsize!! ) but with good filtration you can make it work for a while...
