Well its a good month gone since my cycle finished, I have currently 4 damation mollies , 2 clown loaches, 2 tiger barbs, 8 neon tetras & a bristlenose plec

I am looking for some advice on how people add c02 to the tank, I bought a ventura air kit to fit to my Juwel Filter system and have been running it 24/7 for over two weeks now, Everytime the air is introduced to the tank it gets very very cloudy very quickly and is not very nice to look at , if you disconnect the air and run with the filter only the tank settles within 10 minutes and the water is practically crystal clear.

Are you supposed to only add air at intervals or should it run 24/7 with the filter.I had hoped the tank would settle down after time with the air filter but i see that it will not.

Any suggestions or help anyone may have would be appreciated
 
I am not to sure about the air into the tank, but if you check out the DIY thread and the How Does Your Garden Grow threads there is a lot of info about CO2 in the tank.
