it will clear up and you should be fine, not sure what your system is like but if your running a sump clean your filtersocks/floss. if your running a HOB filter change the floss..

you should have rinsed it first, and i would have preferred sand. what 2 fish do you have in there?

i have a clown and something else. it looks kinda like a miny angel. i have a maxi jet, and a tetra filter. in a 10 gallon tank

its a pygmy angelfish

A 10 gal tank is WAY to small for a pygmy angel!

 

[xxdday77xx]

the people at the fish store said it wont get any bigger then 2 inches. and a 10 is okay for it?

Never listen to people at the fish store! They are there for one thing: TO MAKE MONEY. They really dont care if the fish dies in a week cause you'll just go buy another. If you want a fish or coral, your best bet is to research said animal, so you know the care requirments and be able to keep the animal happy and healthy. I bet they didnt say anything about the pygmy angel being a coral nipper either, right? Hit this link and look for your fish http://liveaquaria.com/product/aquarium-fish-supplies.cfm?c=15+16 Most of the dwarf angels need a min tank of 30 gals. You might want to think about getting a bigger tank!
