20% only.... why?

I think is ur media Hanna disturb.

Go buy a pack of dry magic clean wipes. Put in top of ur wool. A day later super clear and throw wipe

think he talking about the ones that we use for cleaning our floor http://www.arofanatics.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=492002 can get from daiso

[Vitor]

Yup the paper wipes for floor , magic clean is the exp one, daiso , or jap hse is the cheapo type.

Make sure u use the dry type as there are wet ones w chem

Also the wipe once used for a day water v clear but u have to throw the wipe as will choke.

If you never touch or disturb ur media .... shouldn't have cloudy water .


Your pair of ray shit issit during WC ? Observe the next wc ......

A few possibilities that I could think of, for causing cloudy water after water change:

1. You have laid a layer of sand in the tank and the it was disturbed during water change.
2. You clean the tank walls and the scrubbed off dirt polluted the water.
3. The sump pump and the outlet piping are dirty and need a good cleaning and flushing.
4. Sump tank is dirty and need some cleaning to be done.
5. Filter sponge is dirty and is time to wash or replace.
6. Your fish frighten by the WC and 'Lao Sia' polluting the water 😅

Hopefully one of the above is the cause of your problem and you could get it resolve....

Cheers
