Tank has been cloudy like this for almost a week now. Coral and fish seem to be doing fine I have my power head and return aimed at the surface for more disturbance. Just seems to not be clearing up. 20g aio, included filter sock with cut up filter floss in it changed out every couple days. Not sure where this came from, nothing has died or changed, only feed about half a frozen cube a day and do it slowly as the fish eat it. Weekly water changes 20%. Tank is about 2.5-3months old. Test results are from a few days ago. It doesn’t seem to be improving, should I invest in a uv filter? IMG_8844.jpeg image.jpg image.jpg

Just looks like a bacterial bloom to me, you could try to turn the lights off for a few days, or dose some bacteria like microbacter7. I have a buddy with a tank of the similar size and he just had a bloom like this immediately after adding a bag of carbon
