Hi everyone,
I’m fairly new to the forum and to the hobby. My wife and I changed over from a 60 gallon tank to an 80 gallon tank with sump a few months ago (no sump previously). We’ve noticed that the water looks hazy during the day when the lights are on, but looks clear when the lights are off. After some research, I believe I need to add some more filters? As of today, I have some Chaeto growing in one area of our sump and a skimmer in another section.
So my question is, what would our next step be? I don’t see a place on the actual sump where I can add any filter socks. I’ve looked at mechanical filtration with the fleece filter rollers, but I’m not sure if that’s what I need? Maybe there is an easier solution?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
