    Finally after nearly 4 months my tanks water has become crystal clear.i noticed it clearing up for the last 2 days.but i got up today looked through the side(length wise) and said to myself"it doesn't even look like water is in there.I am so freaking happy.I had just about giving up on the hopes of having clear clear water,I had settled for hazy.
    And this happened without any carbon in the filter.
    I took the carbon out 2 weeks ago and replaced it with
    ceramic bio rings.

    HOO-HOO-FREAKIN-HOO-YAA!!

    Cool John, Can you atribute the clearing to anything?
    Do you know what caused the cloudy water?
