Why my water so brown?

[FlipPico]

any bro can advise me why after putting ada soil and adding water...my water is totally brown...what should i do? thank

do you have any wood in your tank? if yes, wood will leech tanins which causes the water to be brown.

is just milky and not clear water, let the sediments settle for a few days and u will have clear water again

Just like what bro boxedfish said it will settle down in a couple of hours to a day or so. Also keep your filter running it will help as well

no wood in tank...i think is the soil? hopefully it will just clear up soon...cause now brown until cant see anything

[giantbetta]

it needs time to settle down bro.Those brown thingy cause by the soil. Try to minimise the water flow.

Leave the pump on and meanwhile just wait for a day, the water should be clear by then..

I leave my filter on with a sheet of Magiclean inside. Also turn on my air pump. Clears up in about 2-3 hours.
