    I would let that settle out.

    Why is it cloudy tho? did you reuse your old sand and not rinse it? I am sorry, I don't recall seeing another thread where you might have asked for advise on how to go about a tank swap. So not knowing what the cloud is I would strongly urge you to let it all settle out and test everythinf to ensure you have your parameters where they were (aka, your live stocks acclimated parameters) and you should be ok.

    You know, many times its just suspended sand ... still, I would wait :) you can reduce your flow and increase your mechanical filtration and that should speed the setteling along.

    If it's just stirred up sand, then it shouldn't be an issue.
