Hi
I had a fish only tank going for about 3 months. yesterday, I removed all my fishes and live rock into a quarantine tank and also removed about 50% of the tank water in a separate container. I introduced live sand (10 lb) + caribbean playsand (50 lb) into the tank. The water is right now very cloudy and almost white. I say almost white cause I do see some algae growth stuck to the tank.
How long does it take to clear up?
Should I switch off the filter to allow the particles to settle down?
Is the sand combo ok or do I introduce more live sand? I thought I can do fine with it cause the tank was already cycled. Lemme know
Thnx
