Cloudy water…

[nzkiwi80]

This system is new. Maybe 5 months old. A few weeks ago my water went cloudy, all my water tests are okay. I’ve done a couple of water changes. Reduced feeding (only have 2 clowns) . It’s not getting worse but not getting better,

any ideas?

Algae bloom? Looks just like what I went through. I added a UV sterilizer and the water cleared up within hours.

Yeah I don’t have one of those

You can reduce light periods or if no coral stop lights for awhile. Blooms can deplete 02 in the tank especially overnight so may want to add airstone temporarily. Ensure powerheads are giving good surface ripple.
