Hi, I have used the Tesco lightweight cat litter as referred to by a lot of people on here.
However, having rinsed and rinsed and rinsed it, my tank is STILL partly cloudy having been running with filter for 48 hours. ALSO the cat litter seems incredibly light and the slightest movement in the water column near the substrate seems to have it wafting all over the place. It seems to be too light and I am worried about plants not staying in it for starters, and that it will just not stay in place when my Corys are in rooting around the bottom.
Can anyone advise ? Does it soak in the water eventually, or will it be the same in three months as it is now ? I have to be honest, I am close to sucking the stuff out and putting Play sand or Unipac Limpopo in instead. Feel a bit disappointed with it to be honest. Another alternative could be to leave a small layer above my aquabasis+ and top it with something heavier.
Would appreciate whatever advice you can give, thanks.
