Greetings-

55 gallon freshwater setup.

Currently, the tank has a brackish water theme with large pieces of driftwood and artificial plants. The water in the tank has been cycling for about three weeks. Plan on adding some more expensive/interesting fish next week. I like the aggressive nature of fish, and would prefer to have an array of species in the tank with out overcrowding the environment.

I currently have 10 feeder fish, three snails, and a crawfish. Anybody think that the brackish water will clear up soon, I hope so.

Thanks,
CDT

If the tank has been set up for about three weeks the water should be clear by now. When you say brackish you are referring to an area where saltwater and freshwater meet, correct?

Welcome! Btw roc, I think he means the theme of the tank, not the quality in it. Seeing as he said theme :S. What fish are u planning on having?

My question was because he said "Anybody think that the brackish water will clear up soon, I hope so."

Welcome aboard CDT!!
How is the tank doing, still not clear? What color is the cloudiness?

Anyway, make yourself at home here on the forum and hope you enjoy it!

Welcome, CDT!

Have you tested the water chemicals at all? I.E. Ammonia, Nitrites, et cetera.
