I have had that hapoen to me multiole times its because of bacterial bloom if u have a skimmer it should be gone within a day or 2 but if u dont have a skimmer try getting one or add heavy filtration if you dont want to waste alot of money for a skimmer

Wow thanks! I do have a skimmer but it might not be tune good enough then

User Avatar @andrejanho 45d

If you want to tuns your skimmer good make sure that the bubles isnt going to the cup fast make it going to half of the barrel of the cup and it will fill up about 4-6 days

Thank you... ive made sure I had my skimmer set properly and I pointed the return pump nozzle upwards to create more oxygen

Either a bacterial bloom or sand stirred up, bacterial blooms are normal
