Cloudy tank, good water parameters

[allcapps]

We have a super cloudy tank at the moment. It started about a week ago after a weekly water change. The cycle is still perfect and has been cycled for a couple of months now. Water parameters are 7.6 ph, 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites , and 5 nitrates. Our axolotl is still in the tank and is eating and acting fine. I thought it could be a bacterial bloom due to the whitish/gray hazy color, but wouldn’t the water parameters be off in that case? Not sure if we should do a big water change to try to get it clear or if that will make it worse. It’s a 20gal long tank with two 20gal aquaclear HOB filters and a 40 gallon sponge filter. About a month ago I very lightly rinsed the media in one of the filters as it was getting very dirty and had pour flow.

If you don't mind, what was the solution? I'm in exactly the same place now and at a loss on how to fix it!

Honestly, just leaving it alone and making sure the ammonia and all other levels were safe was all I needed to do. It cleared right up in its own. Something interesting share, although we got her tank perfect, about a month later, our axolotl started to morph. She was just genetically predisposed to so it was nothing we did. Here’s a recent picture of her and her changes from the start of it. All that work we did on the tank then had to take her right back out lol
