hazzy tank

[freeandhappyfishing]

i have a 10 gallon an i noticed it being hazy after i put mu danios in , it cleared after i put in accu clear, then i know noticed it was a week later that the tank still looked dirty after a 25 % water change i noticed the suction tube that leads on to the filter was a little glogged, i think by the blood owrm casings, but after the cleaning of the filters and water its still hazy alittle cleaner. any ideas? Thank you

3 danios
4 tigar barbs
1 pleco
1 cory
1 bamboo shrimp
had some ghost shrimp i guess the tigar barbs got hungry

What kind of pleco? From what I can tell your overstocked, way overstocked. This would cause your water to get dirty.

i belive its a common . a friend of mine has a 20 gallon tall that i might get im hoping for a bigger tank soon

A common pleco gets to be over 20in in length which is way too big for a 10 gallon even a 20 gallon.

Hey guys, I think the point has been made that he is overstocked. Now how about helping him with the hazey issue. lets give him optins rather than lectures.

is the water kinda white and misty? its just a build up of bacteria. happens when the tank hasnt fully cycled. just keep doing regular partial water changes and it will eventually disappear. nothing to worry about
