Welcome to AA

A cleaning crew is difficult with a lion. A search on the forum might turn up something, but someone who has one will probably chime in soon.

How long has the tank been set up. How much LR do you have and what is your substrate? (all standard questions asked every time).

Have you checked your ammonia levels lately? Almost looks like a bacteria bloom when a tank is cycling.

Are you running any carbon or chemical media (purigen, chemipure, etc.)?

i tested the water last week and it was ok.. i have a test kit so i will do that soon.. also i am not running any carbon should i?
