    IF its a bacteria bloom then a couple of WC should fix the issue. 20% for the next 2 days.

    Purigen is amazing to help your water stay looking good. Make sure to replace it when it begins to turn yellowish also you should rinse the bag after a period of time and reuse until the yellow is really bad.

    I had read that the water changes will do no good until you find the root of the problem or it clears up? It made sense but a wc can't really ever hurt I'm sure I continue with a wc and the purigen. So, far no good results to post.
