What are some possible causes for water to turn a thick green color? I've seen it happen before and was always curious to why it happens

I forgot exactly what causes it, but at the top of the page if you click "search" & type in "green water", a whole bunch of posts will come up about it & you can read to your hearts content.

I wish you luck with it! I've never had it myself.

Algae Bloom.....

Over feeding or too much light or too close to sunlight
