new sand, cloudy water
i was just wondering if it was possible to add a particle clearing chemical and a AC filled with filter floss to help clear my very cloudy water, my 200 and 100 micro socks do nothing and i don't really want to wait a day or two for it to settle. will using chemical clearing agents and power filters likely clear the water in a few hours instead of days.

Let it clear by itself don't use chemicals and filters will help but you still have to let it clear which time varies

unnatural chemicals would be the last thing you will want to add to your aquarium at any time. Your tank will clear itself up, just you wait and see...
