Hey Guys, on monday i set up my new planted tank.
It went through a bacterial bloom and the water became very murky and drift wood had developed white fuzzy bacteria around it.

It has since got much better and the water has got much clearer but i just wanted to know when id get crystal clear water?

Do i just wait it out?
Do i purchase anything for it?

I currently have:
Filter
Oxygen Pump
Heater

That looks very nice. If you didn't soak the driftwood first, it is probably leaching tannins into the water. It is actually a good thing for some species, but it will make the water look more brownish. If you do some water changes, that should clear up the water a bit.

What kinds of plants do you have? I really like those.
