Re: [GSAS-Member] Frustrated with tank that wont clear up

[clayton anderson <naturalart@earthlink.net>]

Laurel, I dont know how long yøur  tank as been cloudy (I dont do the 
chat thing) but if its been around a month maybe a UV unit would do the 
trick? If its only been a short period, say a week or so, maybe you can 
continue to work with filter system (more frequent changes, more filter 
media, etc,.)?

I realize Im coming in on  the back side of  this conversation.
