Here's an update. Still white and cloudy.. but it's getting better every day:
Final update.. clear as crystal at this point... just did regular water changes, kept the UV in and ran LOTS and LOTS of carbon w/ one bag of purigen. . .
and here are the before pics to compare
Lol, glad it all worked out.
Nice looking FWP tank.
I was wondering if you had any idea why running the water through UV light made such a difference?
If you look at the pics when it was white and cloudy, that is the dead algea floating in the water column. The UV killed all the algae, and then the carbon and water changes filtered it out. It's actually clearer than it was before the bloom... now I just have to figure out how to hide the UV feed pump and line. . . And get more driftwood!!! and also figure out what to do with the 30+ baby mollies i have in there.....Originally Posted by selster

It DID clear up... check out the progression from first post to last. it took 3 weeks and some TLC.Originally Posted by ***itzphat
