Cloudy water ..

Daddyrawg · 06/20/2019, 06:52 PM

My 90 gal reef is 1 yr old and I come home to random cloudy water..could it be a bacteria bloom and if so what should i look out for?

I run a skimmer and turbo ats and carbon in reactor..nitrates and ammonia are 0.
Phosphates 0.3

If you have anemones in there they will make the aquarium water cloudy when they are spawning.

Could even be that a fish decided to stir up the sand...

Hard to know... Best to just be patient and wait for it to pass..
Nothing you can really do..
