yeah, i didn't know you cant put SPS in the tank until few months later, i just found out last week. Important lesson learned!!!

i didn't add anything to my tank for 2 months... (except for my CUC which I started at 6 weeks... I added a fish at 3months.. I plan to do the same with the tank I just set up (mind you my LR wasn't 100% cured so that added a few weeks!

My livestock is looking really good, except the water.. Everything open up and looked healthly.

i will not add anything to my tank until few more months. i will do 10% water change on a weekly basis.

This is so addicting, planning to get rid of my cichlid and turn my 36G freshwater tank to a reef tank.

As long as everything looks healthy and your tests show no problems, you're good. The cloudiness will likely settle on it's own. Maybe try doing slightly larger water changes, like 15% on a weekly basis (or 10% every 5 days). Your parameters will come into line quicker and it will help with keeping them there.

Good luck!
