Cloudy water and snails acting strange

[reef_cheif32]

Hello,

For the past 2 days my water has been very cloudy out of no where. All my turbo snails have become very lethargic and are exposing themselves out there shells. I did water tests and have the following.
NH3/NH4: .08ppm
Nitrates: 0
Nitrites: 0
Alk: 9.1
Ph: 8.0
Temp: 78

Everything else in the tank is acting fine. I did a 20% water change but the water is still fairly cloudy. this is an AIO 20 gal IM. Anyone have any idea what is causing any of this?

Thank you

Maybe a bacterial bloom.

Please post ppic under white lights as there are a few types of blooms. Often it points to filters and maintenance

It has gotten a bit better. Water is still clouding a bit and I can’t seem to get rid of the cloud on the top water. Any suggestions. What would be an optimal set up for my AOI filtration.
