Play Sand

[Chelifax]

Hi guys,

Im moving to a new tank. going from my 33 gallons to a 90 gallons. Now i am at the point where im just starting, just putted some play sand and salty water about the quarter of the tank, and the promblem is that im getting some brownish water it been 24 hours and it hasn't been getting better. I have rinsed the sand but maybe not enough.

What can i do to get the water clear?

Thank you very much everybody.

You can hook up a power filter (I've used a HOT magnum to do the job many times) You'll have to clean the poly filter frequently

So i run some poly filter and the water should get clear.

How much time should i wait before putting evrybody in there, could this cloudy brownish water hurt anybody?
I still have to add some water and 60 gallons from my old tank. Might get really better when all of this will be added.
