    hmm... is there anything kicking up the substrate? I had some critters in my tank that constantly kicked up substrate during the night, then it would clear again. It doesn't happen anymore though. Is it just a whitish cloud or? If it has a green or brownish tinge to the cloudiness it could actually be algea floating in the water. other than these... i really don't know what it could be lol.

    hmm... sometimes snails have been knwn to cloud up the water when spawning, depending on the size of your tank. How long has it been cloudy for now?

    I really dunno what to say. If it were me I would try waiting to see if it will clear up since it just started a few days ago. Keep doing your regular water changes and see if there is any change within a week.
