Hi all,
I recently upgraded to a aquaclear 30 in my 10 gallon tank. I was told aquaclears are the Cadillacs of HOB filters. When I first set it up with the charcoal it was looking good. A month passed and threw out the charcoal. I didn't replace it since it's a little pricy and I don't need it. My water was starting to get really cloudy after PWC. I added water polishing pads and fluval prefilter along with the sponge and bio media yesterday. It's been 24 hours and there is still particulates. How do I get rid of these? Is there anything finer then filter floss?
