MarkoD Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTzPLeyYCl8 i have 2 identical tanks side by side. both 75 gallons, both aragonite substrate, both african cichlids. and equally stocked one has crystal clear water and no algae on any of the decor... but the other one where my mbuna are is all green and the water seems to be slightly cloudy (isnt crystal clear) but not milky or anything. i maintain them the same, water changes every 5 days. all fish in them are fed NLS. both tanks are running more than double the required filtration i just cant figure it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CursiveDuck Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Do any of them possibly get more sunlight than the other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLake Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Are there any fish missing in the hazy tank? do they test the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkoD Posted December 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 (edited) absolutely 0 sunlight, its in a basement room with a tiny window with blinds always closed. both tanks test the same. no dead fish or missing fish. they go crazy at feeding time as usual the hazy mbuna tank is starphire. should be crazy clear Edited December 26, 2010 by MarkoD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
