A very unexpected bacterial bloom happened in my tank today. The culprit? Seachem's zooplankton, I suppose.
I have used zooplankton before, from other brands in many formats, and never noticed anything odd. I started using the Seachem about 2 days ago, always following the instructions. Tonight when I went to check the tank before the lights are off, I noticed the cloudy water. It doesn't seem too extreme, but it's not light as well. The only different thing I did was add the zoo. While googling for possible episodes like mine, I saw the ingredients, from the Seachem site: artemia, rotifers, etc. and... Acetic acid!
The list of ingredients is as follows: Ingredients: Water, Sodium chloride, Acetic Acid, Euphausia Pacifica, Artemia, Rotifer, Ascorbic Acid, Citric Acid, Astaxanthin.
They should warn us of possible cloudiness episodes ...
