I heard from a tiger hobbyist " surprise " that it is best to avoid using PL lights for tigers as PL lights may increase the risk of tigers getting cloudy eyes . So far , I've never tried using PL lights cos I choose to be believe than sorry .

You may wanna call bro Dennis ( Kepala Sakit ) on your problem . I believe he will be able to solve all your problems . He is quite knowledegeable on water parameters .

no leh ..... they always last quite a while, like 4-5 days ..... it clears off with melafix or jap yellow powder .... i dun use heater though .... heater has it's setbacks ... while it stimulates metabolism, it also stimulates growth of bacteria present in the water ... the cloudy eye generally has two causes, one is fungus, the other is bacterial .... so i err on the side of caution in case it is bacterial infection
