It together a 20 gal with crushed coral (rinsed prior to adding) and live sand. After 3 days, water remains full of dust particles. I added clarifier, and a second filter element and still the same. HELP!!!!
 
use a HOb filter with some filter floss. it's not uncommon to have to wait up to a week before it's clear.

Thank you so much for the information. I thought it would settle within a few hours. So, I'll be patient. Thanks again

your welcome. also, stop adding "clarifier". it's not doing anything but draining your wallet.

Ok, no more clarifier. Thanks again.
