new water cloudy

I'm in the process of setting up my sump/fuge. last night i filled the tank with water, de-chlorinated, added the salt(Kent Marine) and put in a ph with air inlet. the water was very cloudy when i added the salt, i kinda expected that. the problem is though that after about 24 hrs. the water is still very very cloudy. Is this normal? What should i do?

 

did you pour it in where there is sand? like your DT or what?

 

no it's a new sump I'm setting up. completely empty tank.

 

the water was clear before the salt was added

 

thats normal itll take a lil while for the water to clear mine took close to 2-3 days to fully be clear again

 

yeah i wouldnt be worried.

 

ok thanks. It's my first time using this salt and this never happened with the other type so i just wanted to make sure everything was ok. thanks again. k+
