I moved my tank yesterday about 30 min away water is extremely cloudy. Have not tested nitrates or phosphates. Not sure what to do

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
