Well, folks -- I believe the water may be finally settling (at least for a brief spurt) and stabilizing, as it appears to be getting clearer and clearer almost by the hour...
BUT -- something I noticed, and meant to ask a long time ago...is it remotely possible for a tank and water to be TOO oxygenated? When I look at the water from the front of the glass, it is clear that between the splashings of the two filters I'm running plus the two bubble wands in back, there is a tremendous amount of aeration in this tank and it's so bubbly, it's making the water appear to be less-than-crystal clear, if you can follow me...
Is this possible? Is there such a thing as "too much oxygen" for a tank? My goldies appear to be swimming and looking better since the water has apparently improved, but I can swear the oxygen created by all the filtration and air devices is causing a "bubbly bloom" of sorts, that's making the water appear to look a bit whispy...
Does this make sense?
