I have a 10 gal fish tank with 12 fish. It recently became cloudy with a slight green tint. I bought a new aquaclear 70 filter hoping that this would solve the problem. A week later it is still cloudy, a guy at a pet store told me to use a stability soultion which i am now using. can anyone tell me if this will work and if not give me another solution?
I have had the tank for a little over three months. I have two black mollies. 2 mickey mouse pilaties, 3 zebra dainos, 1 cory catfish, a swordtail and an angel fish. and i did cycle the tank before adding the fish. it has been clear until the last 2 weeks
 
What kind of fish do you have, how long have you had the tank, when did you put the fish in, and did you cycle the tank before putting the fish in it? I am guessing that you have either not cycled the tank, or have overstocked your tank, possibly both. More details and we can help more...
 
Hi,
All you need to do is 20% water changes every day until it clears. TRUST ME, it's happened to me so many times whilst setting up new tanks in my shop! It can take a couple of weeks or longer sometimes though.
Hope this helps,
Tobias
