I decided that I need better substrate for my new 10 gallon planted aquarium. So I tore down the old one, transferred fishes and about 5 gallons of water to a holding bucket, water used to be crystal clear. Washed and put down about 2 inches of flourite and after about a100 gallons of water and umpteen water changes, I decided it was OK for the plants to go in as the water didn't look like Mississippi in Louisiana any more. So I filled up the tank, part with the 5 gallon of the water from the holding bucket. I figured it has all the good bacteria and the goodies and would help my new tank. The moment I did the water turned extremely cloudy. I did transfer the fishes along with it to the tank. Fishes seem to be doing alright as of now. The filter is running. Do I need to do another water change ? Will that reduce cloudiness ? Are my fishes going to be OK ? Do I need to do anything else but wait ?
