I hope someone can help me out quickly or just reasure me. On thursday My scooter blenny died, I think just because he got tired of frozen foods and woulnt eat pods, anyway the inverts took care of him and that night the water started get cloudy. All the levels are fine my guess is that its just an increase in nutrients. I have a UV running to help eliminate the cloudyness as well as some carbon. I also have my skimmer running wet. Problem is I leave for a cruise tomorrow and will be gone till tuesday. The fish are doing fine. Any other thoughts.
Thanks

Cloudy water can really be from many different things. Could a frag be dieing? A leather for instance can really foul water up quickly. Algae spores can cloud water. Have you done a water change?

I dont have any corals, I did a water change last sunday but the cloudyness that usually occurs from that settled down after a day or so.

how long has your tank been running? is the dead blennie still in your tank? if so i'd pull him.
