	Cloudy water?
Jillieillie Hobbyist Posts: 63 Kudos: 70 Votes: 0 Registered: 20-Jan-2005	I have one of those 1g tanks for bettas and I clean it regularly but the water is always cloudy. I had a little rubber ornament in there and I took it out because I was worried that was what was making the water cloudy. My question is, how often should I change the water? and why is it cloudy?!

I don't know about your water quality, but I once lived in a place where you quit drinking the water after you got your daily requirements of minerals. At another town, it was recomended that everyone drink bottled water because it could cause kidney stones and turn infants and small childrens adult teeth brown.
