I just purchased a 10 gallon starter kit, I followed the advice from the pet store. After doing some research they migt not of been correct I am not sure if i need to completely restart. I bought the cycle product and have followed the directions all was good for the first couple days. After the third and final startup dose the aquarium became cloudy. I called to speak to someone at the store they said it is because I have a large bubbler and its disolved air which does not make sence to me. Help please I am anxious to add fish already
First, while I don't know what cycling product you are using, cloudiness in the water is normal when using them from my experience. It will clear in time on its own, so that's nothing to worry about.
The effectiveness of cycling products is debated among fishkeepers -- some have used them with good results, others have found them ineffective -- but I think everyone pretty much agrees that they don't do any real harm and are safe to use.
One thing all the cycling products need, though, is a source of ammonia. Ammonia is the food the bacteria need to grow and cycle the tank. Adding the product without adding any ammonia (typical sources are *pure* bottled ammonia, decomposing fish food, or fish) won't be very effective as whatever bacteria you are adding will starve.
Whether or not it is safe to add fish is another area where opinions differ. Some argue that it is best to complete the cycle before adding fish at all, others contend that it is possible to safely cycle a tank with fish, so long as it's done correctly.
This article is, I think, a great resource in getting you started.
