How To Clear My Water!

[david419]

i have an eheim 2028 but im still getting little particles floating in my water,

i have inlet one end and outlet the other but they dont seem to be getting sucked up.

am i doing something wrong or should i get a little internal filter aswell?

no you will always get little particles floating around,,,,filters are not hoovers,,,,
you have to preform weekly water changes with a gravel vac

i would put some filter wool in the last media chamber on the filter, it will catch all the smallest particles floating around

Hope this Helps, Adam

I use polymawool comes in a big bag and i can cram it in. i can clear cloudy water in about 1 hour.

seachem purigen is supposed to be amazing so i have heard on several occasions, type it in on google and have a read on seachems homepage.

My only problem with using purigen is that it also removes ammonia and nitrite which can have an adverse effect on your bacteria colony as it deprives them of food.

I have never used it so i couldn't really help him out on that.
