Alright experts, I need a diagnosis, Please! [Water Cloudy]

dc, sorry about raping your thread.
Sherri, I agree 100% with Tim, thats definately cyanobacteria, you can do as Tim prescribed and re-treat the tank, just be sure and follow the directions (20% water change) and see if that fixes the problem, If you notice that it reappears after a few days or weeks, let us know and we can dissect the issue in greater detail.

Thanks Jim...just dosed with ChemiClean about an hour ago. How long do I keep my skimmer off by the way?

I'm sorry also DC....didn't mean to jump into your thread. Hope your cloudy prob is better. Pls keep us informed on it.

Thanks guys...

Sherri, keep the skimmer off for a couple days then resume as usual.

Sherri,
Id probably keep the skimmer off untill I started to see some results, at least 24 hours. Good luck!
