I get comments from time to time about how clear my tank is. I recently, however, started feeding the goldfish zuchini and it appears to be clouding the water. I give them about 3 slices a day. Could it be the extra excretion they are making that is clouding the water.

Thanks

Probably a combination of waste and the zuchini.

I agree with JTF on this. Not sure if your profile hasn't been updated or if thats' the actual stock. If it is then you're horribly overstocked, which will of course lead to cloudy water.

What size filter do you have in your tank.
