green tint

[hepp87]

Hey about two days ago there my tank stated to have a green tint to it and it was getting worse until I did a water change yesterday. That helped a little but it is still kind of green. Any suggestions to what this is and how i can get rid of it?

It's a byproduct from algae. Run Carbon for a couple days and it will go away.

also if you are using a light for your tank leave it off for a few days

You should not tell someone this as you know nothing about the tank or what they have in it.
