Cloudy Water in Ponds and Aquariums
Water Clarity / Water Clouding is conditioned on FIVE or SIX different kinds of organism. Bacteria, Viruses, Flagellates, freshwater Protists like Ambiphrya as well as plants influence water clarity.

- Is there such a thing as “A TOO CLEAN aquarium or pond?”
- How does UV (ultraviolet clarifier) make water clarity a little bit harder?
