68% praised for its ability to clear cloudy water, but 32% noticed it didn't work as well with heavy algae blooms.
After using the treatment, the water became a bit cloudy but I did not notice any change in the fish.
Melafix may foam slightly, but it will not change the water parameters or cloud the water.
I lost one Cichlid during the fiasco of cloudy water in the tank. It took four 50% water changes over eight days to clear the water, even though the liquid was supposed to be clear.
