I have a 125 gallon tank which houses 4 stingrays ( approx 6 - 8 inch disks), 2 iridescent sharks(7" long each), 1 rope fish, and a large 12" fire eel.  I have 2 1500 cascade filters on it.Has been operating for 5 years, but the fish have been moved around.  Had more fish in it but moved them.  Why is my tank always slightly cloudy?  PH is 7, Nitrite does increase when water changes are done. (approx 50% every month)  I just recently added more bioballs to the filters to increase biological filtration. It has cleared up a little and the nitrite went down, but it is still slightly cloudy.  Any suggestions? My other 125 gallon tank is fine.  It's driving me crazy that it is always cloudy.
