    What can cause a cloudy tank?

    Im guessing bacterial bloom. Spawn shouldnt take this long to clear and others running the new bio pellets have had the same issue at start up. thanks for all those that helped me out.

    Heating issues with my 28 gal jbj

    hmm most chillers dont come with a pump you have to buy one for it. how high off the water is you light? id take it higher and then make sure you can get some airflow between it nd the water surface.

    What can cause a cloudy tank?

    Can you over-skim a tank?

    dont think theres a such thing as to much skimmer. In this hobby its better to be overrated then underrated :) And that cone skimmer would be worth adjusting your baffes in my opinion. I have a swc 200 extreme and these skimmers are just badass.
