As Ken said, hard to give an answer without seeing your code.
I was working on a similar problem a few months ago. Here's
my media code. Hope this gives you some help.

box {
 <-2.9,-0.1,2>,<1.6,3.8,5>
 pigment {rgbt 1}
 interior {
  media {
   scattering {1,rgb 0.65 extinction 0}
   method 3
   intervals 3
   samples 1,1
  }
 }
 hollow
}

light_source {
 <3,3.25,1.5>
 rgb <0.55,0.8,0.1>*0.35
 media_interaction on
}
