Post by Ngohoangtuan2 »

Hi,

My tank water become cloudy recently. It was clear when I had my shrimps. I didn’t put anything new in. Anything I can do to make it clear. My tank is this kind Tetra LED Betta Tank With Base Lighting, 1-Gallon, 7.25 x 9.5 x 8.5 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007TGMIG2/re ... 1BbWQ4KJ1D

Thank you,

Without more details we can't really say what is causing the cloudiness with any certainty. That said, its usually due to bacteria blooms in response to excess nutrients. Often times the best thing to do is just wait, do not feed at all, and wait for the bacteria bloom to die out. Perform a partial water change if the animals in the tank appear to be suffering ill effects.
