Water problem

[Mr tooheys]

Can anyone tell me why my water has a slight yellow tinge to it???

Use carbon and it will be clear as a bell

Agreed. Carbon will take out the colour and any smell too and leave your water crystal clear.
It's sounds like a bacteria bloom.

No worries guys,by the way I just put on a bio pellet reactor 3 weeks ago do you reckon that caused it as well

That could be the cause of it, are you rinsing your bio pellets before starting up the reactor in the MT? Good way is to rinse the media directly or detach the reactor and run it in a bucket to make sure you don't ge that ting water to your tank.
