who do yall keep yalls tanks crystal clear

[uncleman]

Try using a product called CHEMI CLEAR....is works wonders and then use filter floss, (polyfloss in the Walmart fabric department. $ 2.67 for enough floss to last 3 years). Take out the carbon bag(s), just use the course sponge in the filter/floss, nothing else.
Here's the website for the CHEMI CLEAN --> http://www.fish.com/itemdy00.asp?T1=710008

It is also available at some Local FISH stores.

It really works wonders !!!

i always had problems keeping my 10 gallon clear, then i got a 29 and a 55g. and stays 100% clear, i'd get a bio wheel filter tho if i were you. rated 10 gallons above what u have ( as long as the fish are ok with currents )

get a bigger tank.

Well I have to admit that if you got a 10gal tank and a 40 Gal Filter you should be fine, But I definately agree that it is green cloud algae, and that you should just do a few large water changes with gravel vaccing over the next weeks and put your fish on a strict diet, so that after say a minute or 2 at most all of the food in the tank is gone....and not gone up the filter... and you should be fine..
