So I dosed my first round of p without carbon. Did my 20% water change every third day. About to start my next round of prazipro. However, even with my water changes, my water is cloudy. All of my perimeters are excellent. Should I let the filter run with carbon for a few days and then remove it and start my second round?

Thoughts?

And then once the week is up, do a decent water change again and run carbon for a week before starting my copper treatment?

QT is a 20 gallon long, HOB filter, and a powerhead for airflow.

There are a pair of clowns and very small Valentini puffer in the QT.
