CraigMac said:Hmmm, maybe if looks worse in person, but I think you're crazy!!!! Lol! I think the tank looks great. If I heard you correctly, you said it clears up within 5 minutes? If that's the case I think it's fine and would expect the water clarity to drop a tad during feedings. If if were bad 2 hours later I'd be concerned.
Let's see what others think but IMO it looks great!

Andrew McFadden said:Picky is a better word lol
I think the only reason if it does clear up so fast is because of your water movement. How much gph do you have?
Convict2161 said:I have the fx5, AC110 and the Koralia power head rated at 1,050 gph.
Andrew McFadden said:That's a lot for a 55 freshwater. I'm only doing around 2000
Andrew McFadden said:I think your just being picky and no matter what food you feed there is going to be a little bit. I get some aswell but by the time their done the water is still clear so I don't worry about it and I only clean a rena xp3 every 3 months so it can't be that bad. How often do you have to clean your filter?
Lady_Alia said:Maybe they're so excited at feeding time that they're kicking up debris that had settled to the cracks and crevasses?!?
Convict2161 said:I clean the fx5 every couple of months. And the AC 110 with weekly water changes.
Could be. Never thought of that.
Andrew McFadden said:See my point? if you only have to clean every couple of months it can't be that bad. Your bound to have some no matter what ya feed.
Convict2161 said:Ah... I got it. So it's just me... I'll shall carry one then. Thanks!
Andrew McFadden said:you could try another type and see if your more satisfied. Maybe you will have less
