Cloudy Water?? Bacterial Bloom?

Hi everyone.* I started my tank about a month ago.* *I added Flourite rocks and it hasn't been clear since.* I have done water changes and it's gotten slightly better.* Very Very slight.* ** I thought perhaps it might have been overfeeding so I cute back on that.* No change.* I have tried Clarify and no luck.* All my levels are stable and fine. Any ideas?

maybe try removing the rocks for a couple of days or so to see if they are the source, if not, then it could be a bacterial bloom signaling that your cycle is progressing a normal

Re: Cloudy Water?? Bacterial Bloom?

Are these rocks calcerous? What is your pH?

I'd have to check the packaging on the rocks. The pH has always been a nice 6.8.

Re: Cloudy Water?? Bacterial Bloom?

Would you suggest perhaps more water changes? My tap water is oddly enough perfect. I tested that separate and the pH of that was 6.6 and all the other levels were 0. I am so at a loss!
