Bacteria Bloom

[Rodrigo_BG]

Hello there,

I'm with this trouble in my tank. Bacteria Bloom. The water looks like fog. Very cloudy, and I swear there I can see some kind of "smoke" blowing from the rocks!

There is no extra food
2 small fishes only for 50g tank
Nitrate (salifert): 0
Amonia (salifert): 0.03
Nitrite (salifert): 0

Fishes are doing great.. Corals also..

5 days have passed since the bloom started and the water still the same (cloudy)

I monitoring the parameters and I added an air pump to increase oxygen into the water.

I know why these should happen, but I don't know what I should do to counter this. Any help plz?

Start with water changes and run some carbon in a reactor preferably. From your description it sounds slike a spawning event of some sort. Usually not a problem early on, but it does eventually break down and degrade water quality if the magnitude of the event is as big as you describe.
