I recently retrieved a Red Eared Slider from my girlfriend. When I got him, his tank was disgusting (Her friend had him for a couple of weeks, didn't take care of him) so I used a scrubby sponge a dishsoap to scrub the gunk that made it nearly impossible to see through the glass. Put the rocks in, poured the water in (Roughly 6 gallons which I'm well aware isnt enough and I'm looking into getting a 30 gallon tank. This one is 10) put the filter in and after about 8 hours, this happened! I read online that It could be "Bacterial Bloom" and it'll go away in a couple of weeks. But I can tell he's having a hard time seeing in the water and keeps hitting his head on things! Is there anything I should do? Or just leave it be? Thanks.
