Yellow water
I have a 180 gal tank with a 75 gal sump that's still cycling. ammonia and nitrite have already registered 0. I am waiting it out for a few more weeks before adding any livestock. I run a reef octopus skimmer rated for 400 gals and about 800 grams of GAC.
My question is, how do i make my water clear? Since I already have placed GAC in my sump, what could I still do to make my water clear. Tank has around 50kilos of liverocks and 70 kilos of sand. |

With a tank your size pick up a Nextreef reactor or something close and fill about half full and put it on line. Just floating a bag in your sump or tank isnt going to do it for you water size.
