Hi, I set up my tank about 2 weeks ago, I did a water change the other day and as soon as I put the new water in it went milky?? I dosed the water with Seachem prime and a p.h 8.2 buffer. Is the tank having a bacteria boom or is this Calcium preciptation? The water has cleared slightly but is still a bit milky. All other levels are fine with ammonia, nitrite and nitrate at 0ppm.
 
It's probably just precipitate. You might double check your salinity.

Did your salt get warm? This usually only happens to me if the salt gets warm, as in leaving it in the back seat of the car for too long. Also, if I mix salt into heated water.

It will clear up if it's just precipitate. :bigeyes:
