Hi everyone this is the first time I have ever posted on a forum but I am in despirate need of help. The situation: I have a 37 gal community tank. 2 cory cats, 1 dwarf gourami, 3 male guppies (1 with dropsy ). My tap water is unusable. I have been using the ready water and freshwater one 2 gal. from the pet stores but I am going broke. Also I am trying to cure the guppy. So I relized my nitrates were sky high. I had read you can use distilled water so I went to the store. I did a water change around 1 am last night 4 gal. of ready water/freshwater one from petstore and 5gal. distilled water. water looked fine and nitrates were still about 20-40 but were better than before. Now the part the makes me want to cry and give up. I woke up this morning about 9 and what the...!? the water is really cloudy. I don't understand!! This has never happened before!? the fish still ate fine (except the one with dropsy). I was thinking of adding a mineral/vitamin block. what did I do wrong? How do I fix it? Please help
thanks in advance
