That's a carbon issue, I always use carbon mix with ammonia chips. Carbon is for what clarity and smell, but build up of ammonia can turn the water this color, so maybe do one back ammonia chips and one bag carbon. I use the fx6 on my 350 gal stock tank and it's been working well with those choices of media.

The filter only came with one bag of ammonia chips, so I guess that's not enough! The turtle pee causes the ammonia, correct?
