Not much you can do. It will settle out in a day or so. Keep the flow up, change your filter socks or pads every 6 or 8 hours... Once it settles, do a water test, Should be ok, but better safe than sorry. Do a water change if necessary.

It is hard to tell based on what I know. It could be particles that need to settle and should be good in a few days, or it could be a bacteria bloom that will take a little longer to clear.

Looks to me like bacteria bloom. Is there anything I can do to speed up the process to get it clear
