Ok so I got my tank about 4 weeks ago and I have been doing a fish cycle. Every day I change the water but yesterday and today the water has been more foggy than normal, my nitrites have also been around 1-2ppm is this normal?? The only other time my tank fogged up was at the beginning of the cycle! The Bacteria bloom I assume! My fish seem happy though!

just another bacterial bloom id guess, since you are seeing nitrites, that means the nitrite converting bacteria are starting to grow

Ok good! I read that they would show up in a fishless cycle, which is what I'm doing in my 55 gallon, but I wasn't sure about a fish in cycle. Thank you!!
