Sudden cloudy water
This morning suddenly my tank was cloudy as u can see from the side picture.
MY water is normal. What can be the reason for it and what should i do? I have 1 polyp and a 2 day old fox coral in my 10g aquarium at all.

It's probably a bacterial bloom, but it could be calcium precipitation.

It is not a major problem either way but obviously not something you want. Do a 20% WC and see if that makes a difference. Leave it a day. If no change do another. Stay calm

It could be a bloom of some sort, but it could also be calcium precipitation. Watch it for a day or two... If it doesn't subside do a water change and don't add any calcium additives. If it persists, more water changes, a little at a time but frequently. About ten percent every 12 hours maybe fine... If it is calcium precipitation, the water changes should clear it up. If it is a bloom it'll take care of itself.

Sorry to kind of hijack, but my tank is doing the same thing. How long can blooms last ? I recently added some different macros and now my tank is doing this, but it seems that at around 5 or 6pm it clears right up, then back to cloudy the next day.
I'm going to do a small water change and see...

This maybe due to fluctuations in PH... You'll wanna check the Ph in the day and then once it clears...
