Help Cloudy water!!!

[mferrufino]

Hi guys. Im new to Nano Reefs and need the help of the Pros here. I have a 29 gal AGA tank that i am starting. I have HOB aquaclear70 with no media and a Fluval 205 with only carbon and filter floss that i throw away and i have cleaned the filter 2 times since i started. It has had water for 2 wks and on the the 3rd i added live rock. The water has been cloudy for 2 weeks and nothing was in the tank. The water is DI water and the only things that i have added is Water Cond. and a tiny bit of starter bacter. The water in the tank does not smell, th eonly prob is the cloudiness. Should i worry? or give it time. Once again i just added LR.

The parms are:
SG 1.024
Temp 78
i also have a Aquaclear 50 in it, is it to strong?
Thank and hope to here from someone with knowledge soon.

I would add carbon filters in the fluval for catching particulates. I would have rinsed the rock off before adding. Any powerheads?

Sounds like a bacterial bloom from the bacteria you added for cycling. It should clear up on its own. If you started the tank with DI water there is no need to add conditioner.
