I asked this earlier, but no one really answered it.
I used to keep my betta in a 1 and 1/2 gallon jar, and performed a 100% water change every week to ten days.....it never got cloudy. Even when I went on vacation, and my roommate didn't change the water - didn't get cloudy
So I decided to move "Mojo" over to a deluxe retirement home - a three gallon aquarium with carbon/floss and undergravel filtration - gravel and heat - and 24 hours later the water is looking a little hazy.
How come the bowl never got cloudy, but the aquarium is?
Should I move him out - and put snails in until the aquarium cycles?
The only reason I put him in there is I figured I never had a problem with the bowl getting cloudy.....Does it have something to do with the gravel? He never had gravel before....
(and yes, I washed it well.....)
How come an aquarium has a cycle, but a bowl doesn't?
thats the part that really confuses me.
