I just put together my 29 gallon freshwater tank and it has been 2 days now and all the sudden it got cloudy. I know that its because the nitrogen cycle and the bacteria eating ammonia and stuff. But how long will it last? Should i treat it with some ammonia treatment? Also i am planning on putting fish in it today, can i still do that or is that a bad idea?
I would wait 2-4 weeks until you are done cycling. It isn't a good idea to put in fish when the water isn't ready. I know its hard to be patient but it just isn't worth dieing fish.
Good Luck, and Hope this Helped.
Putting any fish in an aquarium that is going through the cycling stage is a bad idea.Just don `t try to rush things and your tank and fish will be much safer.Give your tank a couple of more days.Please see by blog on cycling an aquarium.you can view this by clicking on my name then click view my profile there you will find blogs to the right of the page.
