Recently I changed my salt to Red Sea salt for a month and I find out that after water change for 1 day the water will be cloudy as below, I change my water from the sump so shouldn’t be related to my sand, I read some post it might be related to calcium settling with the water, not sure what it means and how it works

parameters
Salinity 1.025
Ph 0.05
Nitrate 5ppm
Alk 8

i don’t have a Cal and Mag test kits since most of my Corals is LPS

any thoughts will be appreciated

Potentially. If the corals are happy, your core parameters are stable, then increases the likelihood its a bacterial bloom. Should clear in a few days.
