Safe flocculant

[DraggingTail]

Is there a safe way to get rid of this cloudiness. I know I have asked already.

It just drives me nuts and I cannot afford a UV sterilizer at the moment

You could add a power filter with some filter wool . That would help , I can’t see an overflow so I’m assuming this tank has no sump ,

It depends on what it is. If it’s bacterial uv or time.
If it’s dust

Look for the smaller bottle.

That’s not cheap though.

Woot! +1 on CaribeSea clarifier!

A tiny packet of it came with a our live sand.
This was more than enough to clear the ridiculous fog that the sand made even after over an hour of rinsing.

I would buy the smallest package of live sand available at the LFS just to get the clarifier packet.

That is correct. 303 Fluval for now
