I just started this 14gl aquarium 4 weeks ago and have had one fish (platy ?) die already. I finally got my ph down to 7.6 by doing partial water changes using distilled water. The original water was from my well with a ph of 8.2. I have an angel fish, 3 tetras, a new platy, and 2 bottom feeders. I use an Aqueon filter and have a heater. The temp is 75 and I have a bubbler with stone attached that I use off and on. My water is cloudy even after 5 partial water changes. I may have been feeding them too much and have changed to once a day. I changed my filter the other day as it was plugged. I have tried using some stuff from the pet shop to clear the water but it does nothing. Will this ever clear up by itself? I am getting tire of waiting.
