Hey everyone this is my Fish only tank . I have a reef tank also that's doing great , but this one has got me wonder what else can I do ? It's got a cloudiness that is between white/green. I've done testing , water change 2 time in a week and half , changed filters etc . IMG_7782.JPGI've tried clear tank products .. and nothing no change ! My fish seem to be doing well but HELP!
 
Okay thanks I will get some today ! Will let u know how it worked !

It should. Activated carbon removes impurities from the water column. Cloudy water, that is white and most likely a bacterial bloom, will be addressed when it is removed by the carbon. You have to make sure that it is activated carbon as all carbon isn't created equal.
If the cloudy water was green it would have been an algae bloom. Though one could attempt activated carbon here as well, it would more likely be solved with something like a UV sterilizer.
