Water Clarity?

[rapalaboy1999]

Im having an issue with my water clarity, it has a yellow/brownish tint, i dont know if it it the detritus on my sand (im getting a reef cleaner pack) or if its my lights. I know it doesent look that great, im just starting to get rocks and decorations and coral. Please help!

How long has it been set up? What are your water parameters? That being said, Brightwell Aquatics does wonders for water clarity and will help keep your nutrients low.

Looks like you have a diatom bloom which goes with the territory of a new tank.

It has been set up for almost a year, i had my water tested earlier this week and everything was fine, thanks for the tip. :)

I did add new sand about 2 weeks ago

Could be a diatom bloom from the new sand.

Ok, how would you treat that?

Could it possibly be by over feeding my coral with this?
