Although I wouldn't really call 8 months that old...

I would recommend another 50% water change if your ammonia has started to sky rocket as you will lose fish. Drastic times call for drastic measures!

I'm not that much of a fish expert, but I do have some Goldfish. My Tank used to be cloudy, but now it's okay.

1. Your tank could be cloudy because your Tank is new, but that can't be the case, since you've had it for 8 months.

2. Every week, take out half of the water, and refill it with add new, tap water. Then add the right amounts of:

"Aqua Plus: Tap Water Conditioner"

"Cycle: Reduces Fish Loss"

"Waste Control: Organic Waste Eliminator"

You should add those 3 chemicals weekly, too.

3. Clean the Filter out, weekly, and if the sponge is too dirty, get a new one.

4. If the tank is too cold, you could put it near a window, and keep the fish tank light on. If that doesn't work, try heating up the water before adding it in the fish tank during your clean out.

5. Clean out the bottom of the Fish Tank, dirt can get trapped in the rocks.

If those don't work ... then ask a vet.

have you tried any chemicals for clearing up the water? I used "clear water" made by jungle and it worked pretty well.

also, I have heard the "ph up" stuff isn't that great. it will raise your ph, but then slowly go back down after a couple days, so its not consistant. You can use crushed coral as your substrate, or mix it with you gravel and that should keep your ph at a high level of about 8. use about 10 pounds per 55 gal.

you're over feeding. Left over nutrients motives risky micro organism that consumes oxygen. Oder is likewise brought about with the aid of micro organism. (to no longer be puzzled with constructive micro organism) as a result pass that chemical. boost your filter out length. Feeder fish nor any fish are had to start algae. gentle is (the extra gentle the extra & speedier algae boost). you apart from mght might have presented to many fish to promptly in the event that they're gold fish feeders as they have a tendency to be "grimy" with the aid of nature. additionally widely used rule a million" of fish consistent with gal. of water. I take you advise DE-CHLORINATOR no longer chlorine chemical compounds as chlorine kills fish. If the water have been left as long as you reported chlorine remover does no longer be needed. Chlorine might deplete interior of 40 8 hours at well-known room temperature. In new tanks by using fact no constructive bacterial have yet developed a shocking intro of that many fish ought to certainly initiate clouding with little filtration. The aeration is help finished save it going. Given approximately 5days with much less nutrients the tank ought to sparkling up. you should use a chemical like "sparkling" that motives "airborne dirt and mud" molecules to bond and be filtered out extra certainly or sink to the backside, in spite of the undeniable fact that it is going to sparkling without it. decrease back to a million or 2 pinches an afternoon and make sure they consume it in under 5 minutes. placed your money right into a extra useful filter out and purchase chemical compounds basically whilst nessary. do no longer sparkling the tank & filter out on the comparable time. in case you do your doing away with each and every of the constructive micro organism at as quickly as and you will might desire to start the technique over as quickly as extra. sparkling one or the different wait 5-7days and then sparkling the different. you will no longer might desire to purchase starter em-zines. Do use declorinator whilst doing water alterations or addind fish earlier 40 8 hrs. except you have nicely water.

I've got a 10g tank and I put some melafix/medicaion and my water went cloudy in 5mins

sounds like you need to get all new stuff and start over. save the fish

i think ur fishes are dead...just talk to "the person who i've gotten really good advice from before" cause i really don't know much about fish tanks

well all i suggest is getting a strong hi tech new filtration system.
