Fish
I just put sand in my aquarium and water turned dirty brown?
First of all I washed the sand like 20 times with warm water and then even boiled it .
Then I took a glass and fill it up with cleaned and boiled sand and added it to aquarium from the top basically throwing from the top. Filter was closed during this.
Now my water is dirty brown colour and I cannot see anything in it . Where did i mess it up or how can I clean it now .
Please help.
Thanks for all of you for your expert advices .
Well I am thinking of getting rid of the dirty water rather than starting all over again.
The sand was from the beach and was very beautiful and clean in looking.
So form your responses now I’ll let the filters run for like 2-3 days and then see if it gets clear .
If not then I have to start all over again .
FOr now it looks like a mud in there even though i washed like crazy.
