rookie mistake

I agree, get some heat and flow in there and that water will clear up shortly.

The reason you are supposed to add salt to water, and not the other way around, is the fact that slowly adding water to the salt can lead to an over-concentration of elements which can cause precipitation. If you dumped the water into the bucket, and it wasn't added slowly (like with a RO line), precipitation shouldn't be an issue though. How long has it been mixing?

YUP AN EXTRA POWERHEAD IS ALWAYS HANDY TO HAVE AROUND!!
