![]() We have this tank that has been cloudy for about 3 months straight... to the point where it is actually not funny no more. We have had 3 different fish companies look at it and still no luck. It is actually white and appears to have a film on the surface of the tank. The filter system actually foams up and spills over the sides. Please anyone can give a pointer or two!!!

![]() Was it ever clear?
Bad Salt? Clean it with soap? Edit -- I should say did you ever clean it with soap, not clean it with soap Last edited by m109r; 04-20-2009 at 03:19 AM. |

![]() I have to say, the foaming is weird. Was the equipment new or used when purchased. Can you please provide additional information on the tank?

![]() More information is needed.
How large is the tank? The live rock was cured or uncured? Does the tank/water smell? What pumps are running to move the water? Have you tested the water? Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate, pH? What is the specific gravity of the water? Was this a new tank or was it running successfully somewhere else? |

![]() What is your source for water...tap, well, ro/di? Do you add any chemicals to the water before you mix in your salt? Are you dosing calcium?
