We have a 300 gallon indoor pond running a PJ 3000, foam filters (2), carbon and poly wool container and a container with Bio Max.

Also running a Fluval 404 for the last 8 weeks.

Water change every week. Tank containes 1 - 7" Koi, 10 - 6" or smaller gold fish and 1 Red Pacu 14"

The PH is 7, ammonia is 0, Nitrites are 0.1, Nitrates are 0. Pond has been running for 14 weeks but water is always cloudy. Pond has less than 1/4 inch of gravel.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Cloudy tanks are often common in tanks that have not been correctly cycled - perhaps it is the same in a 300G pool.

I have found that a cloudy tank often becomes a greenwater tank before it clears.

Perhaps you can get advice for cloudy tanks and apply it to your pool.

What do you mean "correctly"? the reason I am puzzelled is all readings are virually perfect.

Thanks
