so i just added clean declorine water with the right amount of table salt for my brine shrimp tank and it has been sitting for over 24 hours at 80F now and the water is still cloudy... why is that? and how can i get it to clear up...
 
WITH TABLE SALT?!?!? I dont think table salt works for brine shrimp........ I KNOW IT DOESNT WORK FOR SALTWATER OR BRACKISH TANKS................ I wouldnt use table salt. Just seems kinda weird.
 
its the morton salt non iodide kinda... i hatch my brine shrimps from this salt and they are alive and swiming for 3 days but once put in the 10 gal salt water with cloudy water it doesnt live more then 3 days befor dying off... no idea why... salt is at 1.025 ph is at 7.8-8 everything looks fine just no idea whats wrong....


yes i have a heater at 80F and a air pump in the tank with no airstone just tube to make the bubble's....



so why aint my water clear as it suppose to be...?
