I have a very stubborn case of cloudy water. I started two months ago with crystal clear water. I did a re-scape. Every time I re-scape the water clouds because I use aquasoil, so it's expected. About a half dozen water changes later (>75%) there is no difference in cloudiness the next day. The water appears to be a somewhere between tan and grey. It seems to get worse as the day goes on which made me think it was algae or bacteria. I dropped a submariner UV sterilizer in and it has been running for the last several weeks.
So the question is; what causes cloudy water that is resistant to water changes and UV sterilizer? The only thing I can come up with is that I have the worst case of AS cloudiness ever, but you would think that after W/C's and time it would settle down.
I'm stumped...
