New tank cloudy from mixing salt

[G_Lows]

just set up my new tank a few days ago. Mixed the salt in the tank. Water still seems to be a little cloudy after mixing it. It got better but I feel like it’s not clearing up anymore. Anything I can do?

What do you have in the tank? Why did you mix it in the tank?

Did you mix th salt in the tank? Is there sand in the tank? Did you rinse the sand?
If yes to all of the above? Just ride it out. It'll clear.

Crank up the power heads.

If you did not rinse your sand, it could be a lot of dust particles from that. It also can be salt additives that have not dissolved yet. Just keep your powerheads on and try to filter it out with socks or a skimmer or whatever you have...

Tank is bare bottom. Used all dry rock that I rinsed with r/o. I used fritz rpm (blue box) salt. I added a bottle of dr Tim’s yesterday and it says not to skim or use socks for 48 hours. Will cranking flow mess with the bacteria and ammonia I added? Working on fishless cycle. I mixed the salt in tank because I didn’t have a large enough container to mix it all in.

Nothing is settled on the glass. I made sure to really mix it in
