Ok so I don't have any fish in my tank I am putting fish food in it for a sorce of ammonia. It's almost done cycling my but the water just isn't that clear. Like three weeks ago it was crystal clear and now it's just really cloudy. So I didn't know if you guys new what was wrong.

This may be expected and likely a bacteria bloom, it should eventually clear up, just keep testing your parameters :)

Do you happen to have any pictures of the tank?
