Cloudy water

[jose hernandez]

So got home yesterday noticed my tank was cloudy looks like a fog early in the morning changed our the carbon got up this morning and still looks the same what could it be?

Bacterial bloom would be a fairly safe bet.
However you didn’t provide much info to go on so it’s a guess at best.

 

[jose hernandez]

So I need to add anything or just let it take it’s course as far as parameters
Alk 9.0
Cal 460
Mag 1350
Salinity 1.025
Nitrates 5
Phosphates 0.07
Tank is over a year old lps meat corals trachy zoas couple of sps hammer torches and a clam

 

[Viking_Reefing]

Any additives that you are using? Carbon dosing perhaps? Any recent changes made?
A picture of your setup helps a lot.

If it’s a bacterial bloom a UV sterilizer would do wonders.

I feed brightwell coral aminos once a week

How did this story end? Waited it out or took active measures? Did it resolve?

 

[jose hernandez]

all clear just let it take its course

 

[lafarrow]

What was the start to finish time? 2 weeks more or less?

 

[jose hernandez]

about 2 weeks and changed out the carbon as well
