ts got test water parameter?

Water parameters all fine. Fishes are eating and growing with no issues. Water is clean, just that there are particle floating around. Only can be seen when I turn on the tanning light. Otherwise cannot be seen.

Forgot to mention at the start that i've got 2 internal filters as well with just filter floss. Dymax EF-40 and Ocean Free SMART 1000. Both black, so forgotten that they were in there.

TS please learn to resize your images.

From what I see my opinion is the bioload is too high. Is your tank facing the sun?

Fish eat and growing well more important than fixing the pleasure of your eye problem.

Free of particles and crystal clear water do not mean good water

Why so stress in fish keeping?

Nope, tank not facing sun. No algae problem.

Sorry bro. A bit of a perfectionist.

to solve your particle can be seen issue,
just look from a further distance

but actually it seems like you dont have the normal filter wool, only have those black biosponge.
you can add filter wool and it should trap the particle.

Bro, i've got 2 internal power filter with filter wool only. Dymax EF-40 and Ocean Free SMART 1200.

Anyway, i've revised my setup. I've added 2 layers of wool between my jap mat and bio-sponge in the IOUS and change to wool for all the top OHF trays. Also added UV steriliser before my OHF inlet.

Water looks better. Waiting for my Seachem Purigen to be delivered.
