If there is a whitish colour to the water and it is not being caused by the powerheads stirring up the sandbed it could be a bacterial bloom.

Especially if your tests are showing 10ppm Nitrite.

How much live rock do you have in the tank?

How big is your tank?

3 fish is not a big load on a tank. Unless it is a small tank with big fish.

Make sure you are not over feeding also.

Sorry about all the questions. Just curious about the nitrite reading.

You really shouldn't be doing any water changes until everything is zeroed out.

Are you using buffers or Kalk ?
