Hi! I'm Jessica

Hi all, I'm Jessica, I do security and help keep up a tank at work.

Currently we have four tetras, two color glows, a pleco and a rainbow shark fish.

Current problem is that it's smelly and slightly cloudy.

We have an underground filter and a whisper filter, and a preset heater in a 15-20 gallon tank.

Thank you in advance for any help!

Here is information on cloudy water that will help you. Cloudy water says you have bacteria in the water, not good.

For the smell, get a bag of carbon and place it in your filter. Change it out every 30 days.

Hi Jessica you have nothing to worry about just do a couple of 40% water changes in the next week or so. This happens a lot just don't feed as much.
