I decided to finally try to do a planted aquarium. Now 24 hours after I set up my aquarium it’s awfully cloudy and looks like dust is just flowing throughout my aquarium. I have a 10 gallon with 8 plants all different kinds (can list them if important), regular aquarium gravel, seiryu rock, and driftwood. I’m using a sponge filter (also first time using one of these), and a heater at 78 degrees Fahrenheit. All plants have a root tab beside them, I used 1 squirt of easy green and water conditioner.
I have never had an issue cloudy water after 24 hours in an aquarium. This being my first try at plants and a sponge filter I figured I’d come here just to make sure I’m not missing anything.
Thanks
