Hello, I test my tank every 1-2 days because i'm still new and want to make sure everything is right... my ammonia keeps going to 0.25 (mg/L), 2 days ago I did a 30% water change and today it was 0.25 again, I did another 20% water change, cleant my filter (with the water I took out of my tank) and now my tank is a bit clowdy... What causes my tank to become clowdy and is it harmful? and how can my ammonia keep riseing, I feed my fish only enough for them to eat. I have 2 clown fish, 1 blue tang and 3 hermit crabs.
185 litre/48 gallon


another question, to reduce diatoms/brown algae will it just dissapear with time? I have had it for about 2 months now (tank is about 5-6 months old). Should I use chemicals to slow the algae process? or any other way to get rid of it?


I have a small piece of small soft coral and want to eventually get more live rocks/soft coral, what kind of corals are easily kept for a begginer? and are anemones hard?

Thanks
 
I think you should work towards getting your water conditions in shape before adding anything else.

What filter do you have?
 
I know and im not planning on adding anything yet im only gathering information

I just have a built in filter that came with my fish tank (one in hood) and an wave pump
 
Ops.. i've posted in fresh water forum instead of salt water.. sorry D:
