Earlier this week I changed my substrate to ADA Amazonia aquasoil. I took the utmost care when I was filling the tank originally, but that had little to no effect. I have since done what most likely amounts to a 750% - 1000% water change, but the tank continues to be unbearably cloudy (to the point where I quite literally can't see more than maybe an inch into the tank from any direction).
What concerns me even more is that even after I do the water changes and the tank starts to clear up, when I turn the filter back on within several hours the tank is back to its original cloudiness.
The filter is an AC 50 on a 15 gallon. The outflow is not hitting the substrate at all. I can't figure out what's going on.
I've ordered an Eheim 2213 canister to see if that makes a difference but I'm not very optimistic at this point
suggestions?
thanks
