Seachem Phyto and zoo plankton bloom?

[graffitireef]

Hello all, Im going to be getting a green mandarin in next week and wanted to get started on populating my nano with pods. He eats frozen but I feel a balanced diet and as much biodiversity wont hurt so I bought a bottle of pods and seachem's phyto and zoo plankton to help these guys get established. The day before I added them I did a water change. All parems were looking good. I woke up this morning to what appears to be a bacteria bloom. Water is cloudy and slightly milky. No green or brown tint. No hair algae or cyano anywhere in tank. Only thing in the tank rn is a baseball size of red macro algae, a hermit, and my LR. Fish died two weeks ago but Ive been dropping a few pellets to keep the lone hermit fed and nitrifying bacteria up. I verified the pods were active and alive when I added them. No experience using the plankton though. I threw in an airstone to boost dissolved O2 as I read it can help resolve blooms. Anybody else have any insight?

Is yr alk really 200?? Looks like bacterial bloom due to new tank + phyto, and you will have to continually supplement pods into the tank the mandarin will make quick care of all pods in a tank that size

I would add a uv filter to eliminate any possible blooms now and in the future.
